<p>I am applying for International Business and Chinese EDII. I am a white female from Texas.</p>

<p>I also interviewed with an admissions representitive last month. I think it went alright. I guess I will see....</p>

This summer I did volunteer work in China tutoring children in English (over 100 hours worth)</p>

<p>Unfortunately, my school cut its Chinese program due to budget cuts, but I am very interested in Chinese. I wish that could come across more in my application. </p>

<p>Awards:</p>

National Commended Scholar (11)
National Forensics League (9-12) Degree of Special Distinction

<p>Any ideas for my chances would be awesome! I am applying EDII because I am applying to NYU Stern EDI, completely under the expectation to be rejected. I fell in love with GW however, and I hope I am not ruining my chance at GW by not applying EDI (I kinda feel like im cheating on George Washington lol)</p>

<p>Another chance thread. I used to be obsessed with it when I was in the process of transferring.</p>

<p>Hard to say, but in my opinion I’d say you fall into the competitive pile meaning you have a good shot of getting an offer.</p>

<p>If you made your summer volunteer experience at China standout to the admission committee I’m sure they’ll be in your favor.</p>

<p>If you have any questions related specifically to the IBUS program or Chinese let me know, you can send me a PM as well.</p>

<p>Good Luck.</p>

<p>ACT? Great/very good.</p>

<p>GPA? Good.</p>

<p>Extracurriculars? Fine. A little average or weak, but ok. At least shows some leadership.</p>

<p>4 APs so far? Low. Adding 5 more? Good, if you can keep the GPA up.</p>

<p>From Texas? Good. That’s a bit of a hook. Not as many applicants from the south.</p>

<p>White Female? That’s a shame.</p>

<p>You’ll likely get in with good essays. Or, at least have a good chance of it. The only thing a bit weak is your ECs and being a white female. ACT makes up for it. GPA is good enough. </p>

<p>I would even dare to say you have a chance at NYU as well. Not particularly strong or unique extracurriculars, but great ACT and good GPA… from Texas. Apply to GW & NYU.</p>
