Your stats are plenty good to get you in, but you should try to bulk up your extra-curriculars and make sure you express interest. They like to turn away students that they think are using Kenyon as a safety; your high GPA and SATs may actually be a turn-off.

Your stats make you very competitive for admission. As was previously mentioned, make sure you you express interest in actually attending Kenyon. The interview will help you most in this aspect. Be sure to read up on what Kenyon has to offer, and think about how your goals and lifestyle will fit well with a small residential LAC like Kenyon. I can't really stress enough how important it is to show that you are genuinely interested.

As a side note, the SAT II is not required for admission, but feel free to send them your scores anyway.
