<p>Contact the soccer coach ASAP. Playing a sport is probably the "easiest" way to get in--you have to be good of course.</p>

3

<p>What is the breakdown of your ACT? Are you a perm. resident or a citizen? Will you be taking an of the tests again?</p>

<p>Thank you for the advice...I'm going to contact the soccer coach ASAP...

Math 28
Reading 27

I'm taking it againg, hoping for a 30...
I'm a citizen actually...I have dual citizenship</p>

<p>With a smashing good essay and that 30 on the ACT or higher I think you stand a chance. You also need to take another SAT 2. Good luck!</p>

<p>Not should, you have to take another SAT 2 :p</p>

<p>You're probably not going to get in without talking to the soccer coach, but you have a decent chance if that works out.</p>
