Quick Advice please

<p>Hey!
Ok these are my HS stats:
I didn't apply for any scholarships.
UW GPA: 3.5
ACT: 31 (equivalent to 2040 on SAT)
IB Diploma candidate</p>

<p>500+ hours of community service
IB Diploma Recipient ****
31 on my ACT which equals a 2040 on the SAT</p>

<p>I have a 4 page resume with a TON of extra curriculars and community service. I've also had 3 jobs and one internship.</p>

<p>College stats:
first semester freshman-taking 17 hours (at my school you aren't allowed to take more than that without written consent from the dean)
I go to UT Austin
I will have mostly A's, maybe 2 B's this semester.
I have a ton of EC's here too-2 jobs, an art class, piano and guitar lessons, horesback ridiing lessons (weren't originally on my resume).</p>

<p>so what do you think my changes are of getting into the communications departments (Public relations to be exact) (that's what I'm in at UT Austin) for Fall 2011 at:
NYU
USC
Chapman
Loyola Marymount
Pepperdine</p>

<p>Please help me! I really need some advice here. Thanks :)</p>

<p>ooh also:
I forgot to add--I was previously accepted into Chapman for fall (my freshman year so this year) with a $20,000 scholarship that i didn't apply for)
also, I previously applied and was rejected from NYU and USC but I applied to their business schools (foolishly)--now i'm switching to communications</p>

<p>also, do any of these schools (besides USC) have prereqs that have to be met for entering the comm school?! </p>

<p>thanks again!</p>

<p>I would say a middling chance at all of those schools, LMM and Chapman are probably a good chance, and maybe to USC.</p>

<p>Note that if you get into Chapman again, it may not offer you a scholarship since you are now a transfer student.</p>

<p>Remember if you don’t get in as a soph transfer, you can always try again as a junior transfer. Just keep up your GPA.</p>

<p>thanks :slight_smile: Yeah I feel like LMU and Chapman I have a fair shot at, the others might be reach. Though I know LMU, Chapman and Pepperdine are all religious and I have a TON of religious community service with leadership positions and such. Yeah I know I won’t get my Chapman scholarship back (probably) and that’s fine, I just figured that since they gave it to me the first time when i didn’t apply for it, that they’d probably let me just into the school again :)</p>

<p>any advice anyone else?</p>
