<p>Haha, I feel like we live very close. I’m familiar with your business program, as I go to one of the other programs within the district. Anyway. I think the thing that may hinder your application is your class rank. Otherwise you seem like a solid candidate. However, I am not an admissions officer and an admissions officer could easily say no to anyone they want, so we really will never know</p>

<p>Oh wow, we probably do!! How ironic :slight_smile: What program do you go to? And thanks for your comment, I definitely agree about the rank part…and true, unfortunately you never know</p>
