College Search & Selection

<p>Good morning,</p>

<p>I am a junior from Orlando, Florida. Even though no schools from Florida are on my list of potential colleges and universities, I was wondering what a good safety school in Florida would be for me? My interests are to major in Journalism and minor or double major Poverty Studies or related topics. I'm also looking for less than 5,000 students. My current GPA is a 3.91 weighted and 3.57 unweighted. I have not taken the ACT or SAT yet, and I will graduate with nine or ten AP classes from a small private high school that does not have class rankings. My extracurriculars and activities participated in are the following -</p>

<p>Student ambassador
Boy scout
Outstanding Community service
Jazz band
Youth group
Debate
Nhs
Latin honors society
Sea scouts
Donate blood
Cross country
Perfect attendance

Presidents volunteer service
NYLT staff
Ministry at church
Solo and ensemble
Order of the arrow
School non-academic/academic awards
National Latin Exam
Honor Roll
Dean's/Headmaster's Award

Rachel's Challenge club
Speaking at town meeting</p>

<p>Thank you,
Andrew</p>

<p>How about New College of FL? The Public LAC.</p>

<p>That sounds interesting. What would my chances be of getting in? It definitely seems considerably less traditional, but then again that’s not necessarily a negative point. Thanks for the suggestion.</p>
