Chance Me: ED0 UChicago, ED1 Cornell, ED2 NYU Stern from a top prep school
Hello,
I go to a top prep boarding school in new england. I am a repeat as I renlisted as a Junior to come to my new boarding school. My cumulative HS GPA is a 3.8, however with the exclusion of my weak first junior year it is a 3.9. My junior year GPA is 3.85-3.93 My sat is a 1580 (780 r&w, 800 math). I am also a legacy at Columbia and Brown. I will be applying to UChicago in the SSEN/ED0 binding round for summer session participants. I am applying as an econ major to all schools. I am white, upper class, US citizen. Some internships were done in serbia which is part of my narrative about it being a part of my identity and wanting to give back.
I am highly interested in these 6 schools.
- UChicago ED0
- Cornell ED1
- NYU Stern ED2
- Brown RD
- Columbia RD
- Georgetown RD
I have no impressive awards or AP's as I have never attended a school that does AP's. The only recognitions I have are First Honor Roll at my old and current school.
