<p>Actually you don’t bring that much extra racial and geographic diversity, LOL. Last year (Class of 2012), there were 723 Texans that applied to BC (with 187 admitted, although only 36 actually enrolled). And 10% of BC’s undergraduate students are Asian.</p>
<p>Now if you were a Native American from South Dakota…</p>
<p>Seriously though, it is a bit surprising that you weren’t admitted. Certainly with that GPA, those SAT test scores, and the obvious rigor of your honors and AP classes, you certainly are in range. And BC doesn’t track expressed interest or do interviews, so those don’t matter at all. Maybe it really was just the sheer numbers and competitiveness of this year’s applicant pool that did you in.</p>
<p>I wish you luck and hope you get called off the wait list. I think you would be an asset to BC.</p>
