<p>I'm going to apply to boarding school but I only want to apply this one boarding school. I know you should apply to about five schools but I don't want to go to any other school. I really want to go to this school and it has about 100 students total (in all four years). The acceptance rate is said to be 50% (I'm not sure if its a very competitive school). </p>

<p>This is kind of a resume or what I would write on my application. (I'm going into 9th grade and I'm 14 right now.)
-I'm an international student from two countries (One of my parents is English (not from UK though)) and I'm currently living in another country and go to a very highly accredited international school. So I'm diverse.
-In the last report I got, I got 12 As and 2 Bs for effort. And I got the highest grade you can get in Math, and get above average for all my subjects except in 4 subjects I got average, and I got below average in PE. But when I say average I mean for my school which is above average in everything over all. My school doesn't offer AP/honors classes cause it has a different system.
-I take part in a lot of theater and art activities, but I am bad at PE and I'm not on any teams. (I will try to avoid mentioning that) And I'm thinking about taking some lessons outside of school.
-I recently hiked up a mountain so I take part in outdoor activities.
-I take part in Amnesty and other community service.
-I taken and passed up to grade five with merit in grades 3,4,5 in my piano exams.
-I think I will get good teacher recommendations.</p>

<p>Do you think I would get into this boarding school and what are my chances? Do you think I should apply to more schools? Which schools do you think will accept me? What else should I write my application and what makes an application look impressive?</p>

<p>I think the fact that you really, really want to go to the school is a big plus. Be sure to mention all the reasons why you will be a great fit for the school. Let them know that if you are accepted you will be very happy to attend.</p>

<p>I hope you get in, tessadavis!</p>

<p>I think you have a great chance of getting in if you really want to. You should try to show on your application why the school will be a great fit for you, and how you’ll contribute to the school. I think you should apply for another school, though, because you can never be too sure about the odds. You should just be yourself and let your qualities shine. It’s hard to really say which schools will accept you, because as I learned from posts on the forum - It’s all about the fit, fit, fit!

  • Which school is it though? Curious.</p>
