<p>Did you apply EA with the "Your Choice" application? It makes a slight difference, but given the early date let's assume you did.</p>

<p>Based on last years Class</a> Profile your GPA is fine, ACT is just outside the mid-range. I'm not sure if there is such a thing as a "super-scored" ACT but if so I think that would boost you into the mid-50%.</p>

<p>In any event, you have a full array of ECs and good work history - both positives in a holistice application review. Be sure to read this article as well from theramonline.com Freshman</a> Applications, SAT Scores Up - News</p>

<p>At this point in the game my best advice is to just be patient, you should know in the next couple days if you applied EA. If not, review the EA thread and you'll get a good idea what's going on in the admissions office this year.</p>

<p>Best of luck.</p>
