<p>Hi I am currently a high school senior or will be starting in late August but I need some information on if I should apply to Tulane SCEA or just early action. If I applied to Tulane just plain early action (nonrestrictive) I would most likely apply to University of Miami EA as well. Tulane basically is my first choice, while I have never visited the campus I have gone to New Oreleans many times before and after Katrina. Here are some of my stats:</p>
<p>I live in Texas, and I am an African American female with a 3.5 gpa and while it is low I attended a rigourous private school up until the middle of my junior year when I left because of lack of significant financial aid. I am in several clubs as a high ranking officer. I also have over 400 community service hours and over 200 school service hours , I plan to have at least 500 by the time 8 apply. ACT score: 30. But I will retake it in september. I am also applying to BU, Rice, Temple, UT austin (Plan II even though I think I have a slim chance I have talked to the director and she thinks I have a good chance. Also I plan to major in poli sci and go on to law school after undergrad.</p>
<p>Any help at all is welcome, especially from ppl who were in similar situation</p>
