<p>I went on college apps to look at the scores, and it said that most GW students have scores of 27 above and a GPA of 3.5 and above. That said, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t apply. Maybe just really try to bring up your scores and gpa and see what happens. Your EC’s seem really strong, so that may help you a lot. I visited GW myself recently. If you like a really busy atmosphere and don’t mind a campus that doesn’t really seem like a college campus, it may be a great fit for you. I would strongly advise you to visit though, it ended up being completely different from what I had pictured.
American U- You would fit under the 25th percentile with your ACT score, seems like it may be harder to get in here. I think is very expensive, I heard they don’t give much financial aid, in case that is important to you.
DePaul- You are closer to the 50th percentile it seems here, this seems like a solid choice.
Loyola Chicago-You are just slightly under the ACT score here, however with your impressive EC’s I would say this would still be a great one to apply to.
Loyola New Orleans- Your ACT fits perfect, seems like a great fit!
Transylvania- Seems like another good fit.
Please chance me!

Thank you!</p>
<p>Your ECs are great but grades/test scores aren’t so great…I think these schools are realistic though, but you should also look for safeties! What are you planning on majoring in? If you are planning on majoring in art you should look at some art schools too because they would be easier to get into if you have a strong portfolio. Some art schools are FIT, MassArt, MICA, Moore College of Art & Design, UArts…Most of the schools you mention you could get into considering your ECs/volunteer experience since that is a huge aspect…Chance back?</p>

<p>These schools all seem possible for you, except George Washington and American University might be a bit tougher for you.
Best of Luck</p>
