What are my chanced of being accepted into Pitzer College: Regular Decision?!

If you want to be really awesome, it would be great if you could just say safe, most likely, match, reach, or absolutely not.

I am a high school senior who is ranked 4 out of 117 kids. My grades are all high A’s, so I have a 4.0 unweighted GPA. I have taken several AP classes and received a score of 5 on five of them and a 4 on one of them. I have outstanding extracurriculars: I volunteer A LOT, am NHS president, started my own tutoring program, started a club at my school, am part of the Spanish Honor Society, won a poetry award, am a district representative in my city’s youth council, and this summer I interned with a district judge and traveled to Japan with my school. Those are the good things. Oh, also I’m Asian.

Cons: I don’t play sports or play an instrument. My ACT score was a 31 with a 23 on the writing. My SAT was worse (1390). I’m not a National Merit Scholar.

So yep please let me know what you think my chances are!

You definitely have a chance. I wouldn’t say safe/most likely, or absolutely not.

Technically your stats are absolutely in line with what Pitzer is looking for, but every school with a 13% acceptance rate is a little bit of a reach. You’re definitely a competitive applicant though!
