Hey everyone,
I’m a Junior in high school. I have a 4.5 GPA (cumulative), and I love film. I can talk for hours about Paul Thomas Anderson, and my only wish is to go to NYU Tische. I want to know what my chances are.
Here are my extracurriculars/other things at my high school:
I’m in all honors classes, except Spanish (not offered for me)
I’m in MUN (highly decorated delegate with awards) and I’m the Publicity chair.
I’m the president of my school’s Make-a-Wish club (I started it with my friends Sophomore year)
I’m a two year reviewer for the Newport Beach Film Festival.
I’m heavily involved with my school’s broadcast class (we make short films to advertise for school events) and it’s tied to a prestigious film program
I’ve been nominated for Best Graphics, Best Independent film, and Best Show Open at the OC Film Festival.
I’ve had numerous freelance jobs for videography and editing.
I’m in NHS (got in this year)
I was in volleyball freshman and sophomore year.
I won my high school’s school spirit award and excellency award sophomore year.
I have not taken the SAT or ACT yet.
Do you guys have any advice about applying? Any personal experience about liberal arts schools and the things I can do now? Thanks
