<p>Hello,
I was wondering what my chances are regarding admission Loyola University of Chicago. My freshmen year GPA was absolutely horrid (2.5). However, it has risen immensely, with a 3.5 sophomore year and a 3.9-4.0 my junior year, with a number of APs (Between Junior and Senior year I'll have roughly 4 and I'm assuming I'll get 4s and 5s on the exams). Also, my SAT score is incredibly average, at an 1800. I have good EC's: I've started a religious diversity club, I am captain of my schools debate team and ranked as the top speaker in NJ, I am teaching debate to younger students, I am politically active, and I've written for a politically oriented online magazine. Furthermore, I am a black belt and work as an assistant, teaching martial arts. Additionally, I will have glowing recommendations from truly qualified teachers. Unfortunately, I am an out of state student (NJ) which I know can hinder my chances. I would love some insight regarding my chance of admission.
Thank you very much</p>
<p>While nothing is certain, I think you sound like a great candidate for LUC. What are you planning to major in?</p>
<p>Probably take a pre-law track and major in poli sci </p>
<p>You are definitely the kind of student that Loyola is looking for in terms of social science majors. Good luck…and I think you’ve got a great shot. </p>
<p>Thanks
