My son's chances?

<p>My son is considering applying to College of Charleston and I was hoping you could give me your opinion if he has a good chance of getting admitted. </p>

<p>We have lived overseas for 7 years, currently in Holland, but prior to that in Brazil. Because we lived in Brazil, he is fluent in portuguese and he is currently enrolled in his 2nd year of the IB certificate program for Spanish. He has taken a couple of AP courses (US History, Human Geography, Calculus) and a honors course in Physics. </p>

<p>GPA 3.1
SAT Math 620, Verbal 520, Writing 560
ACT 24</p>

<p>Extra Curr.
Volleyball - 9,10,11,12
Basketball - 9,10,11,12
Baseball - 9,10,11,12
Jazz Band (plays alto sax) - 9,10,11,12
Model United Nations 11, 12</p>

<p>Has done community service in Brazil and in New Orleans with Habitate for Humanity.</p>

<p>I am hoping that since he has lived out of the US for 7 years and has more of a global background, this might help his chances. What do you think?</p>

<p>I think he is in. Especially being a male. CofC is easier to get in as a male because of the relatively high female/male ratio. His stats are pretty good. I think the geographic diversity will help as well.</p>

<p>His GPA is quite low for what CofC normally accepts. Maybe he will make it into the connection program? That's what I did and it helps out quite a bit!!</p>
