<p>Even though I am a pretty well rounded student, I am seriously passionate science, math, and economics. My teacher recs should be pretty good and so will my essays.</p>

<p>And is there any possibility I could be considered for the Interdisciplinary Science Scholarship?</p>

<p>Thanks for any responses :)</p>

<p>Hello all! You may not be able to answer this because it is most definitely a personal question–but
I absolutely fell in love with claremont upon visiting campus but wasn’t able to apply ED. I have applied to large schools (umich, UCLA, UCBERK, Texas, UNC) and won’t hear back from these until after the ED2 deadline for CMC.
I have a 3.9 UW gpA
top 10%
Rigorous courses/may extra curriculars
2140 SAT 1, 700s in SAT2s
Good recs/good interview
Still think my chances of acceptance for regular are very slim to CMC and probably will only be accepted if i apply ED2. Is it worth it to do so–Are my chances SERIOUSLY reduced if I apply Regular?</p>
