Hi - I am applying early decision to Fordham and am really anxious about the whole thing. I have all my applications finished and I know there is nothing else I can do but wait but I would like to hear from any professors or people on admission boards on what my chances are. My school sends my weighted gpa of 3.781, unweighted is probably around 3.6. I have always taken honors classes, have 4 APs (including senior year), got a 5 on my AP Lang exam, and a 29 on my ACT. I have been on the crew team for 4 years and am now team captain and I’ve been in choir for 4 years. Also, i am a writing center tutor. I filled up the extra curricular section (various sports, community service club, French club officer, etc.) and the honors section (French and English honor society, NHS, usrowing honor roll, academic letter) on the common app to the max and wrote my essay in short about overcoming anxiety (Tourette’s, anorexia, etc.) through the influence of my big and diverse and loving family (7 brothers, 3 different dads)…I am Pakistani, Western European, and Spanish. Do I have a good shot getting accepted early decision? Fordham is my dream school.
Any comments appreciated.
Thank you!!
