Hi, my name’s Mia, and I’ve been wondering if it’s possible for me to be accepted into Villanova’s business school for accounting. I know it’s competitive, but do I have a chance?
GPA: 3.7 (I am taking more AP and honors courses next year to raise my GPA)
SAT: 1150 (My score came from no preparation just to see what would happen. I retook it last Saturday, and am waiting for results)
School: Catholic
Extra-Curriculars:
-Ethics
-Leadership Academy
-Girl’s State
-Band
-Book Club (founder)
-Green and White (ambassador program)
-Boy’s Soccer Manager
Sport: Golf
Service:
-I teach a Sunday school
-I volunteer at a wildlife refuge during the summer
-I traveled to Italy to rebuild a monastary
Recommendation letter:
-My school’s President, who graduated from Villanova. She most likely included how I wrote a letter supporting her when she received lots of backlash from students and parents for firing our football coach. It’s reached national news, and my letter is published on the Courier Post.
Essay:
-The struggle of being half-Korean, and how I learned to embrace my race.
