lehigh chances

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hi everyone, I'm just wondering what you think my chances are of getting into the following schools. My GPA is a 3.4, however in my freshman year i got a C- in a math class, and I know that that could hurt my chances. But other than that pretty bad grade, my lowest has been a B+. </p>

<p>Lehigh (first choice)
Fordham
Elon
Villanova
Bucknell
Providence
University of Richmond</p>

<p>I plan on majoring in Journalism at all of these schools, no matter which I go to.</p>

<p>SAT 1 SCORES:</p>

<p>verbal: 585
Math: 515
Writing: 620</p>

<p>jv basketball -9
jv tennis -9
varsity basketball
(all state senior year) -10,11,12
varsity tennis -11,12
varsity cross country -10</p>

<p>I'm really into sports and would be interested in playing in college if i could
I also started an ultimate frisbee team at my school..</p>

<p>I took 2 AP classes during High school, and a bunch of honors classes.
Was on Athletic Council 10,11,12 and I volunteered at a nursing home.
Worked for our school newspaper</p>

<p>Have had a job at a summer camp throughout high school, and other jobs as well</p>

<p>So any feedback on what you guys think my chances are would help a lot.. thanks</p>

<p>No chance at Lehigh IMO</p>

3

<p>what about the other schools i specified?</p>

<p>and come on i know more people have input</p>

4

<p>Are you getting recruited anywhere? Making All State is a pretty big deal.</p>

5

<p>Where are you from that you made all state ball?</p>

6

<p>there have been a few schools that have expressed interest in me for bball (like conn college and skidmore) but i dont know whether or not i want to go to a smaller school like these ones because they don't really have some of the things i'm looking for in a school. and i'm from a really small town in CT.</p>

7

<p>You made first team all state and can only play DIII?</p>

8

<p>Fordham -- probably
Elon
Villanova -- unlikely
Bucknell -- unlikely
Providence
University of Richmond -- possibly</p>

<p>Honestly, I think that Lehigh is pretty unlikely. If your GPA was around 3.7+ and your SATs were about 100+ points higher (total), I'd say that you have a decent shot.</p>

10

<p>Based on last year's results I would not count on Lehigh.</p>

<p>BO5Ton- yeah my dad did too and he went to conn college, played there, except only played 32 seconds combined his freshman and sophomore years. and zoosermom; since you left elon and providence blank does that you mean you think i will be accepted there, or do you just not know?</p>

12

<p>oh and sorry i forgot to tell all of you that i am retaking my SAT's on saturday, and hopefully I will get at least 100 points higher!</p>
