<p>HI-
Could use some good advice! My daughter would like to apply to Northwestern for Fall 2011(which means in the next 2 weeks!!)</p>
<p>Her 2 main interests are Music and Communications/maybe journalism/ television.
Minimally she would want a minor in music/vocals. </p>
<p>As a candidate for the school, I think she has a shot, if she showcases her strengths. 2120 SAT, her strongest score in writing 800 (her interest) GPA 4.35 class rank 5. President of Chorale, Editor-in-chief of Newspaper this year, female leads in the school musicals each year, etc. Good community service with Autism charities for several years.</p>
<p>My question is this, given that she has these 2 interests (and strengths), what major should she apply to initially, to give her the best shot at getting into the school?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
