<p>Hi! I'm going to be applying to colleges this fall, and right now I'm looking at Middlebury, Macalaster, St.Olaf, Grinnell, and American. I'm planning on majoring in International Relations. I really want to work for an NGO later on in life hopefully focused on aiding young women or would love to be a teacher. I have a 4.63 GPA and currently have a 28 on my ACT. But I am part of the IB program so I'm not sure if that's REALLY going to help me. I've been interning at the museum of contemporary art Chicago for 2 years, and have been an intern at the art institute of chicago for 2 years (simulatanously). I love slam poetry and I am going to be captain this year! I'm Indian as well. I also have been singing and playing piano for 7 years; at school, church etc. I'm also going to be part of National Honor Society this year. The characteristics that matter the most to me are community, the international relations program, diversity, and cost. I've always had a very close relationship with my teachers so that's really important too. I'm most comfortable when I feel like I have a PLACE, and I enjoy being around those who are humble and down to earth. </p>
<p>Could you guys help me, in telling me what my chances are for these colleges, and what other schools I should look at? That are either reach schools or match schools! That would be great. (Also your opinions of these schools)</p>
