<p>Any and all input is appreciated, whether you know NW admissions inside and out or don't know the first thing about it:</p>
<p>GPA:
Iona College - 3.58 - 50 credits
Nassau Community College - very likely 4.0 - 12 credits
(not very likely to hold much weight, I know, but it'd give me a 3.66 between the two schools)
Weaknesses in transcript: C+ in Calc 1, C in Management, B in Micro, everything else is either a B+ or A
Studied business at Iona, Honors Program student with a hefty scholarship</p>
<p>SAT: 1320
High School GPA: ooh, let's say, 3.5, I never got an exact # on a 4.0 scale</p>
<p>ECs:
High School - Captain of track team, ran own website since 2000, ran father's campaign for the school board (this resulted from the Mepham High School football scandal in August 2003, which is also a really strong subject for essays and recs)
College - President of Iona College Republicans, general member of SGA</p>
<p>Work experience: Part-time work & odd-jobs with dad's business since 1999; summer volunteer internship for local legislator in 2004 & 2005</p>
<p>Essays: I'm usually really good with this part, so let's assume I can knock 'em dead
Recs: Same as above, I'll be getting 2 from Iona professors (1 of them the Micro professor who gave me a B) and 1 from an NCC professor (I e-mailed admissions and was told that "four is a good number" for recs) and all are probably going to be extraordinary</p>
<p>Applying to CAS for an Economics major.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance. Also for all you current NW students, if you have any comments about the upperclassmen dorms, I'd appreciate hearing, as (with any luck) I'll have to get working on that subject soon.</p>
