Hello, I am a junior a public high school in MI and was wondering if anyone has any input into what it takes to become a Robertson Scholar? I have my mind set on those two colleges but could definitely use the financial support.
I have a 4.25 weighted GPA, am 1/178 students, and am participating in a full International Baccalaureate program. My physical extracurriculars include Varsity XC (3 years) and Senior Elite Dance Team (2 years).
Clubs include NHS, Key Club, Class Leadership, Subdeb Club, Captain’s Freshman Mentoring and Future Medical Professionals.
Leadership positions include Lieutenant Governor for MDKCI, Co- LTG Chair for MDKCI, VP Key Club, Pres Subdeb Club, Captain Varsity XC, and Founder and Pres of Future Medical Professionals.
Some of my experiences include organizing a student walkout in memorial of Parkland Shooting, co-organizing a student walkout for my school supporting the #ENOUGH movement, raising $1500 for Make a Wish, organizing and holding service projects for hospital patients (origami activities, non slip socks, cards), working on a school system committee to redesign the heath class curriculum, writing a 4 pg petition with over 150 signatures to allow coffee in school, and speaking at the March for Our Lives Rally in my town.
Awards include # High School Recognized Outstanding Student, Honor Roll, and Robert F. Lucas Outstanding Lieutenant Governor.
I am hoping that someone can provide me with some insight as to whether or not I have a chance at the Robertson and how to improve my chances?
