<p>I want to go to any of the colleges mentioned above! My scores are low, but I plan on majoring in Art because I am very passionate about it, and I hope to have a career involving it. I'm submitting an Art Portfolio to every college. I'm applying to some Jesuit Colleges and am not Christian, but I am Buddhist and Hindu and strongly practice them. Any tips for getting in would also be helpful! Thanks in advance for your imput!</p>
