Reply:I got accepted to Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI. It was fairly hard though, try... St.Thomas University in St.Paul Minnesota. I am from that area, its a fairly easy college to get into, also... Augsburg University (a Lutheran College) but none the less, they are failry easy, and still at the time great schools with advanced courses if necessary, I would strongly consider these. Also, try state universitys, the U of M is very easy to get into, and a great school! Drawbacks: It is very large. If you care about that then I do not know. The University of Madison in Wisconsin is very easy to get into also and an O.K school. Drawbacks: It is highly liberal. If you care about that... I would also suggest you take over the SAT, try getting better results :-). As you said... But, you are a very good student with extra curriculars. If you can pay for school and actually do participate that much, most schools would be crazy not to take you. Best of Luck :-)!
Reply:Go to your guidance counselor, or www.collegeboard.com
they let you search their college database and they give you stats like minimum SAT/ACT scores, cumulative averages, and costs. You should probably up your SAT scores (no offense, just try to get them up another 400 points or so and you'll greatly increase your chances), but your extracurriculars look really good. Just make sure you write a killer essay and you get good recommendations from your teachers. I know a friend of mine got into Hofstra with about the same SAT as you have now, and less extracurriculars, but he had a really good essay. Good Luck, I hope you find the perfect school!
Reply:You will never know until you apply. You need to apply to all of the colleges that would want to attend because acceptance is as much a factor of GPA and test scores as it is college entrance essay, community involvement, and intelligence (which is usually determined at an entrance interview).
Reply:These are all good schools. I know the long island area and hofstra is a difficult school to get in. I would reccomend that you also check out the SUNY schools in NY. If money isnt an option than you have given yourself more possibilities. Also, while a 2.95 isn't the best GPA, you are involved in a lot of activities and groups which is a big plus and you did very well on your SAT (congrats). I would suggest Siena College. I had a friend who attended that school and just graduated. She really loved it. Here is the website address, www.sienna.edu . Go to academics, click on majors and programs and scroll all the way down. You will see political science as a major. Just to let you know, they look for a B+ average and basically all the courses you listed having taken in high school. Check it out. Good luck. Another college I would suggest checking out in the University of Tampa.
Reply:Try Salisbury University in VA. Your SAT scores fit in there nicely and they have political science. It is beautiful there as well. Good luck!
