<p>I'm a freshman in HS. It's been my dream to go to Stanford since forever! However, as I've gotten older, I've thought about how far it is from home. I live in GA. Do you guys think I could do it; how are the people at stanford? Also if I stay on the track I am now, do I have a good chance of getting in?
I go to the top school on my state- it's a total liberal arts magnet.
I've contained to keep straight A's despite the tough classes, a.k.a biology class</p>
<p>You may want to consider a residential summer program at Stanford next year to start to get the feel for being away from home and Stanford itself. They have a summer institute and although it seems pricey I believe they offer financial aid.</p>
