<p>Hi
I'm a senior this year. I applied to several good school (uchicago) and few mediocre ones. My question is: after I turned in my app, with my GPA frozen and my Sat score already sent, is there anything I can do to improve my chances?
Thanks a lot :)</p>
<p>If you have one any major recognitions/competitions, it cannot hurt to send this on to an adcom. If you are involved in a significant project/internship related to field of study-- there’s no harm sending a BRIEF summary of this work on ahead.</p>
<p>Your grades are not really frozen-- if you have straight As in first semester in very difficult courses (AP/IB)…that’s a favorable situation which is captured by the mid-semester report.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>You keep showing them demonstrated interest (if that school cares).</p>
<p>Just like the other posters have said, demonstrate interest. This means contacting current students to ask about the school, visiting the campus a few times (if you can), letting them know about any of your recent accomplishments, getting in touch with a faculty member who teaches something you’re interested in, and just consistently checking in so that they know that they are your #1 school.</p>
