I just got in for ED I and I think you’re in a great position. I’m not sure if they consider theater applicants differently (with auditions and such) but I doubt it since they don’t encourage you to declare as a freshman. Nonetheless, your academics and ECs look great. I have a similar UW and W GPA if that helps too.
