What would you put my percentage of acceptance chances at if I apply ED with....


----GPA- 3.83 W, probably ~3.6 UW(low rigor; only one or 2 APs per year) currently ranked 149 out of 613(barely top quarter, ouch) will raise it senior year though with 2 or 3 more APs

----SAT- 690 m 760 cr 740 w

----EC's- 4 year basketball(2 year letter), 4 year cross country(1 year letter) at a 5A school with 2600+ students, National Merit Qualifier(waiting to see if it is commended scholar or semifinalist, probably just commended) NHS, maybe 60+ hrs community service, worked on and off for 2 years at baskin robbins and refereed youth basketball, aau nationals every summer, cerebrals society member (not sure if that even counts)

You are certainly in range.

Visit if you can, interview, and do a smashing job on your essays. Show them why you and CC are a perfect fit. ED helps.

How do you arrange an interview?

Canadianmom

Just call Admissions. When you are a senior, you can get an on campus interview and also an overnight stay and go to a class.

Hard to say. But your chances are zero if you do not apply. Not necessarily ED. EA is an option, too.

That is true tk, thanks i will probably go EA

Meantime, show them lots of interest; request info, visit at a college fair if you can. I think they especially value that long term interest as part of "fit"
Good Luck

You are certainly in the range, especially your CR SAT core--nice job. It appears that Colorado College admissions gives great weight to whether an applicant is a "good fit".
Good luck
