What are my chances for Barrett's Honors College?

Hello,
I am a junior currently, will be a senior next year, and am therefore checking out colleges that I may wish to attend.

As for a little about myself, I currently live in Arizona.

GPA: 3.65 UW, 4.25 W
SAT: 2110 (710 math, 700 RC, 700 Writing)
ACT: Haven't taken yet
SAT II's: Will be taking APUSH, Math, and either Bio or Chem on the earliest date of my senior year.
AP Classes: By the end of my Senior year, I will have taken 10 AP Classes/exams...
Euro, US History, English Language, Calc AB, Bio (did horribly on this one though), English Lit, Calc BC, Chemistry, Econ, Government. (I also may self-study Stats, but have not decided on that one yet.)

EC's:
-Student Government (All 4 years) and Student Body President-Elect.
-NHS (2 Years)
-Job at Baskin Robbins for 2 years by the time I graduate with the highest promotion possible.
-State Convention for Student Councils. (2 Years, all that was possible for me)
-National Convention for Student Councils. (This summer.)
-Calc Squad (Lame, but it's a club.) [Possible cabinet member for my senior year. Elections haven't occurred yet.]
-SSBTR (Students Supporting Brain Tumor Research). Run by my STUGO in correlation with other schools, but it is held at my school. In my time with the charity/walk, $1 Million has been raised for research.
-State Student Government Summer Camps (3 years)
-Tons of community service (My STUGO is very active, always doing something, whether giving away a car for perfect attendance [which is paid off by our labor] or planning for SSBTR, dances, etc.]
-Debate club my senior year
-Possibly Deca club my senior year, still undecided.
-Lacrosse (Varsity) my freshman and sophomore year. Varsity captain my sophomore year. (Stopped playing that, though.)

-My planned major is Political Science. I may be double majoring in History, though.

That's about all I can think of currently. What are my chances for Barrett's Honors College at ASU? I know my GPA is probably low, but I still would like to think I have a chance.

Thanks ahead of time!

I say you have a very good chance. You have a great SAT score and I think last year's average SAT for Barrets was 1350 (M + CR).

Thanks for the reply. Do you currently attend ASU Barrett's? If so, how do you like it thus far?

Nope, sorry! Starting college elsewhere this fall.

Good luck!

Barrett

I am currently a Barrett student. I've had a great experience so far.

Assuming your credentials and qualifications stay consistent with your past record I imagine you shouldn't have too much difficulty being accepted. Just be sure to complete the application essays early, truthfully, and somewhat creatively.

Best of luck.
