<p>I was wondering if you would do me a favor and post your stats here. This is copied and pasted from the Penn ED results. I just want to see if I have the credentials to stand a decent chance at WashU applying RD. In addition, I believe these threads are more helpful than chance threads. Thank you.</p>

<p>[ /list][ b]Other Factors (weaknesses, strengths, etc.): Looking at my stats you will probably wonder how I get accepted. I have a low GPA for a school of this caliber and no AP classes. However after 2 years of hs I transferred. I had honors classes from my previous school but they did not transfer over and since I decided to transfer so late (a week before Jr year started) I was declared "not eligible" to take any of their ap/honors classes. Sr year I wasn't allowed for ap because since my previous school was "behind" on their curriculum I had to complete certain classes(taking 2 classes normally meant for sophomores) The biggest factor for me was all in my essays. I did the common app and choice the biggest risk I've ever taken. Naturally, I picked my decision to transfer and everything that was entitled with it and explained every minor detail about my transcript. Another "help" is that I'm going to play football at Wash. I only went to my current school 2 years and have won many awards (all conference, academic all state, all area, team leader both years in tackles, team captain). So in August I searched for schools with good academics I could play football at (I'm too small for d1). I showed great enthusiasm to join the Wash U community by contacting the coaches multiple times and calling admissions to offer insight on everything I needed to hopefully get accepted. I applied ED and took a few campus visits as well to meet with the professors, coaches, and counselors. Just let them know how enthusiastic you are in attending Wash U and work HARD on those essays. The grades/test scores are always important too. </p>
<p>[ b]General Comments/Congratulations/etc:Congrats to all and I look forward to seeing you come August. For those deferred, hope all goes well for you. GO BEARS!</p>
