<p>I'm a Junior very interested in Kenyon because I heard it is great for students who are involved in creative writing (as I am). I just have slight concerns about my chances of being accepted there.</p>
<p>Here are some statistics about me:</p>
<p>GPA: 3.74 (this year alone, my GPA is around 4.20 (I imagine the cumulative GPA will increase more by the end of the year))
Rank: top 15%
Number of AP courses taken: 5
(ACT scores have yet to come in)</p>
<p>Other things:</p>
<p>I've been an editor for two years for the school newspaper.
I've won several national writing contests.
I'm in AP Art, this year being my first of two (my Art instructor thinks I'll get a 5 to 6 (the highest scores) when the portfolio is submitted.)
I'm writing a novel (the first three chapters won a national contest).
I'm a member of the US Achievement Academy.</p>
<p>Considering all that, what are the chances I might be accepted? I plan to submit my application by the Early Decision date.</p>
