What are my chances of getting into Carnegie Mellon University?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I am planning to graduate a year early from high school, I'm not sure how much that factors into my chances. Because of that I have to double up on history and english.</p>

<p>My courses for freshman year were: English Honors, Biology Honors, Geometry Honors, Global Honors, Latin, Spanish Honors, Band and Jazz Band
My courses for my second year are: English Honors, Chem Honors, Algebra/Trig, AP Global, American Honors, Latin, Spanish Honors, and Photography
My courses for my third year will be: Two AP English courses, AP Gov't and Economics, Physics Honors, Precalc, Latin, Spanish, and Photography</p>

<p>I have a 3.8 GPA
My SAT is 2200
My ECs are: An out of school Jazz band since middle school, the school newspaper, varsity ski team since middle school, a food blog that I co-run (does that even count as an EC?), volunteering at a local hospital and independent language learning.</p>

<p>I really like CMU and it seems like a school where I would fit in, but do I have any chance of getting accepted?
Thanks</p>

<p>Do not take my word for it, because I am not an admissions associate for CMU, but your grades are really competitive for CMU. Double AP English will be really hard though to do in one year, and possibly they will respect that decision? Also, nice extra curriculars, and I would say that the food blog counts as an EC(unique). If you only took the SAT during sophmore year and got a 2200 then you are a ■■■■■■■ genius lol, I wish I was that smart. If your just entering your junior year then you got lots of time to take the SAT again to try and score higher. Also, Carnegie Mellon will require different SAT subject tests for different majors so make sure you look into that and get it done before the end of junior year. I think as now your in really good standings to be accepted, good luck! </p>

<p>Thank you so much! I’ll keep all of that in mind when I apply</p>
