Hi, I made one of these before but I don’t think it was as specific. Some honest replies would be great. My application has already been sent in (as of late October) and i’m currently waiting for an admissions decision. I applied for summer and DUS.
ACT: 24
GPA: 3.8
SAT: Did not send
Hook: I was able to list my mother as alumni since she currently works at Penn College, which is owned by Penn State (I get 75% off tuition if I attend UP) and since she taught nursing at Penn State UP for 5 years. I also thought my essay was strong, but I don’t know how much detail I can let everyone in on on here.
As for ECs, I played varsity soccer for 4 years and was a captain this year (my 4th), basketball for 3 years, track 1 year, and I am in Spanish club.
12 total AP/honors courses. 7 AP (economics, chemistry, calculus AB, US History, Physics C: Mechanics, Spanish, and statistics, the other 5 were honors (mainly maths and sciences)
If I forgot anything, let me know. Thanks!
