<p>My dream school is American University in Washington DC</p>
<p>Some people will say that it is fairly easy to get into for a good student, others will say that it is VERY competitive (slim chance)</p>
<p>So, I'm just wondering my chances.. Basically, I want to learn to accept the fact that I won't be able to get in if in fact, it is true. So please be completely honest!</p>
<p>Here's my info:</p>
<p>GPA: 3.6</p>
<p>ACT: 27 (32 - Reading, 31 - English, 25 - Math, 20 - Science (oops!))</p>
<p>Extracurriculars:</p>
<p>President of National Honor Society (member for 2 years)
Vice President of Class (VP for 3 years)
Secretary of Future Business Leaders of America (member for 4 years)
Community Youth Foundation (member for 4 years)
Senior Mentor (1 year)</p>
<p>American University has also said that a "very important" factor is the level of the applicants interest, so I've sent them an e-mail, stating my interest (and asking a question so it didn't seem random :P). Also, I've visited the Campus, which I was sure to mention since I live in Ohio (these things may not mean anything, but who knows?)</p>
<p>If you want to, I also would like to know my chances for the following schools (which I am applying to):</p>
<p>Miami University (OH)
Boston University
The University of Dayton
George Washington University</p>
<p>THANKS :)</p>
