Please chance me!!!! Scared Junior

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

I’m a junior in a big urban public school in DC. I never though too much about college until this year, and I’m not going to lie this website it giving me a major reality check and making me think I’m not good enough for the schools I’m looking at. My top choice is Tulane, also University of Wisconsin, University of Michigan, and University of Virgina are pretty high up on my list!

ACT: 30
UW GPA: 3.9
APs: AP World History (received a 4) Now taking AP Human Geography, US History, and English Lang. Next year Ill be taking AP Lit, Comp gov, US gov, French, Calc AB, and Physics A (also taking a class at George Washington University instead of having a free period)
ECs:
Harvard Model Congress, School Newspaper (junior editor), Model UN, Nursery Volunteer, Literacy Club (co-public outreach chair), school-wide recycling coordinator (founder, manager), International Studies Academy, Peer tutor for kids in my city in elementary school below level in reading, Sunday school student teacher (to a 7th grade religious education class)
Ethnicity/gender: white female
I will probably have really strong rec letters, I am super close with some of my teachers

So if anyone could chance me or suggest schools that would be a good fit please!
Also please feel free to suggest specific ways I could improve my application (not just weak ECs)

You’ll be fine for Tulane.

Very good chance at Tulane. If anything, try and bump your test scores up a little to give yourself an even better shot.

My sister currently attends Tulane and did not have stats even near yours (other than her 2050 SAT score–approx 31 on ACT).

You are fine.

You are a junior, so you still have time. When did you take your ACT? School just started. Just try to bring that score up 2 points and you’ll be good.

Ive taken three practices tests and each time i get a composite 30 so i just decided to put that, but i should’ve made that more clear!

bump

You need to take the ACT, and study if possible to get your scores up by a couple of points. You are OOS for at least some of those schools – can you afford to pay the full out of state tuition?
