Hi @cababe97
You seem good academically and in your EC’s your community service stands out… You also have leadership experience…Your application seems great… You mentioned photography is a hobby… Perhaps enter some of your photos for contests… It would add accreditation to your ‘hobby’… Also (you don’t have to answer this) how good are you at volleyball? It looks like you have a lot of experience, would the school want to recruit you for their Varsity team? If you think so contact the coach of the school…Ask him question maybe send a demo of you playing… If you can get the coach to advocate for you, they have a lot of pull in admissions… Also maybe have a wider net… apply to more schools (if that’s financially feasible for you)…That also brings up something… If you are applying for FA then its much more harder to get into a school and you definitely should widen your net… Good Luck :slight_smile: :smiley: :-bd
