No I mean I legit want to go to Baylor. I’m literally in love with their University Scholars honors program. And for my major, Religion, they’re world-renouned.
A lot of people seem to think I’m crazy though.

Do you mind sharing the stats?
Stats
Background:
SAT/ACT (or TO): 1380 (was scared to send but ended up doing so because the average SAT in my area is like 1000)
GPA (clarify if UW or W): 4.0 UW
APs: 11 & 2 Dual Enrollment
Course Rigor: Picked every AP & Honors class, except for my music electives, school has about 24 AP Classes
Class Rank: 2/456 (because of my music classes lmao)
Activites/Awards
ECs: Music (state level)+ multiple district/school/county honor bands, LGBT Volunteering throughout community, Taking care of siblings, President/VP of a few academic clubs, Marching Band Leader
Awards: Nothing international or anything cool lol; typical school level awards
Essays:
Basically my overall theme was music, community, & health-promotion within the LGBT community; all my essays kinda talked about the same ideas because I wanted them to connect with my activities & common app
Supplements
Arts Supplement: I did an instrumental solo but tbh I feel that it didn’t help that much because my instrument broke a few days before the deadline so I literally had to submit my best practice run. I checked youtube for other people who did instrument solos and it didn’t sound as good as them.

You aren’t crazy at all. Every student should choose the school that best fits them.

Has anyone been able to see financial aid yet?
No WAY. If you fall in love with a school and its program AND you get into it?! Do you know how many people don’t have all of that line up for them? Go for it!

Thanks bestie xx
I got two really rude comments from people on reddit today about my decision to turn down UVA and UNC honors for University Scholars @ Baylor so really needed that encouragement that I’m not making a huge mistake, haha. But you’re so right dang. I’m going to my dream school to do my dream program & they just won the men’s basketball natty. What more could a girl want, haha
