<p>Looks like a pretty impressive record–I’d say very good chances esp since you attended the ND Summer Program. You might mention it in the app and any professors you were impressed with during that program. I def think it helped son when he applied!</p>

<p>The volunteer work will stand out, though perhaps not enough to cancel that 2140. If you improve that score to something above 2200 and send in a well-written essay, I would think that your chances would be fairly decent. AL’s comments seem solid. Even if you get a 2400 though, don’t be overconfident. The essay counts for more than the SAT, and ND can and does reject perfect scores.</p>
