<p>I would encourage you to try for the BU Trustee - you have to be nominated by your high school so tell your guidance counselor. You definitely have a shot (my daughter got it - but doesn’t attend there). You have an even better shot at Scripps - the application for merit has to be in by 11/1 I think and BU by 12/1 (double check the sites). If you are looking at Scripps would you also consider Claremont? They have merit also if you apply by 12/1. Good luck - I believe you have a good chance to get merit and congrats on the great scores. Do let us know the outcome!</p>
