SO worried.

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I just applied for the FALL08' semester for Loyola Marymount University (LMU). I'm pretty uncertain if I'm going to get in or not so tell me what you guys think:</p>

<p>I am applying as a Political Science major out of College of the Canyons, a local junior college. </p>

<p>White/Caucasian
3.0 AVG GPA on 13 units applying with/21 completed upon entrance into LMU
HITE/HONORS Program
1710/2400 on SAT's</p>

<p>Extracurriculars:
-Model United Nations Team/ Won Outstanding Delegate award first conference ever attended/ invited back to staff the conference at a later date (PAXMUN)
-Cashier at Ralphs for 3 years, put in my app. that I was working and attending school at the same time, working 30+ hours a week.
-Employed by United States Congress as an intern for Congressman Howard P. "Buck" McKeon
-Football player and soccer player 4 years throughout high school</p>

<p>I felt my essays were very good, and my letters of reccomendation were positively beaming about me. I personally felt they were the best letters I've ever read. One was from my Political Science/Model UN teacher and the other was from an old high school teacher, both PhD holders and well versed in the fields of politics and law, respectively.</p>

<p>What do you guys think? I understand my GPA is not strong enough, and I'm pretty scared about getting in. I'm just hoping my extracurriculars will get me in.</p>

<p>I love LMU! It has a beautiful campus, you're really shooting for a great school!</p>

<p>Yeah, your GPA is definitely a little low (standard is about 3.4-3.6), but I wouldn't count you out just yet. LMU as a school is pretty big on community service and extracurricular involvement, and not many applicants can say they interned for a Congressman.</p>

<p>I don't know when you find out, or any of the deadlines for LMU, but good luck sir!</p>
