Chances?

Hi guys! I'm currently a junior (white female) and was wondering if anyone could give me advice about schools. These are my stats:

GPA- 3.76, and it'll be higher by the end of this year- around a 3.81

SAT- 1930, 660- CR 630- Math 640- Writing
-I've only taken it once and plan on taking it again

ACT- Haven't taken it yet

Extracurriculars:
-Soccer- 2 years JV, Captain 10th grade, 8 years travel
-Lacrosse- 2 years JV, 2 years travel
-Yearbook- 1 year so far, Promoted to People Manager after 3 months, Business Editor next year.
-Started my own business freshman year as an adjunct to my dad's business, I sell clothing and merchandise to the athletic teams at my school and other businesses
-I volunteer at an elementary school tutoring students 2 times a week over the winter
-Member of National History Honors Society, English Honors Society, Science Honors Society and French Honors Society
-Member of Glamour Gals and Autism Awareness Club
-Leader in Training at a summer camp
-Counselor this year
-Rock climb on an advanced team 2 times a week

Senior Year Course Load:
AP Physics
AP Physics Lab/ Gym
AP Gov & Pol
Honors English
Honors Calc
AP Stat
Yearbook
Peer Leadership/Public Speaking

I've taken 2 AP's in the past and I've always been an honors student.

I plan on majoring in Business or Communications. I also lived in Russia for the first 9 years of my life and hopefully that'll help me stand out since I want to go more specifically into International Trade and Business.

What are my chances? If anyone could help me it'd be highly appreciated Thank you!

Just based on your GPA and test scores, you are not likely to be accepted. Retake the SAT and try the ACT to see if you can improve your chances. Good luck!

Sorry, but based on what you've posted, I don't think you have a chance. Maybe with an ACT of > 34.

I'm not sure if ND has an IB program...but anyways, you should really try to improve your test scores and GPA. Also, if you can take AP English Literature and Composition (or AP English), I would strongly suggest it. I heard once greater than 85% or ND admits have taken it...so it can't hurt.
