<p>Couple questions @FutureFrog19:</p>

<p>In state or out of state?
Did you interview? Visit?
Breakdown of your SAT section scores:
Do you happen to also have an ACT score?
Intended major?
When did you apply? Did you apply ED?
Did you take AP tests? Results?
What school is ACU?
Can your family afford TCU without aid? </p>

<p>OK @FutureFrog19 thanks for the added info. I wouldn’t answer the last question either. </p>

<p>Disclaimer - I am nobody - just a parent - and I don’t have students that have applied to TCU. One that might in the future. My belief is that TCU is on the rise and they are getting more competitive. </p>

<p>You have a few strikes against you IMO - female, in state, borderline SAT score. </p>

<p>You have a great set of ECs. I am confused by the theater heavy ECs in high school - no mention of Art - with an intended major in Visual Arts. </p>

<p>I know at another in state school, that kids get into the Fine Arts school with less than the average standardized test scores. They make up for it with outstanding auditions in music, theater or an arts portfolios. </p>

<p>Does TCU / ACU require an Arts portfolio for your intended major - have you sent your work in? </p>

<p>On the other hand - if fine arts - Visual and or Theater is an area of need for TCU, one or both of these could help sway your application to a yes - if you have made these skills and interests clear in your application. </p>
