I am! I have no idea if I have a chance at getting in, it seems like posts I've seen from 09 Johnson applicants are practically super-human

ACT (1 try): 32 composite (science screwed me up!)
SAT IIs: 610 Math II (bad bad bad) 710 US History, will take Lit in December
APs: 5 on English Lang, 4 US History, 4 Spanish, 4 Env Sci, 2 BC Calc (I don't even wanna talk about it haha). This year I'm taking Stats, Psych (independent), English Lit, and Govt all AP
GPA: Weighted 4.66, currently valedictorian out of 416 students

Also applying to UVA, William and Mary, Georgia Tech, Tulane, Brown, Bridgewater (super safety). I really really really want the Johnson though, I loved W&L a lot more than I thought I would when I visited, and it would keep me closer to home than some of the other scholarships I'm applying for. Me going to W&L basically depends on this scholarship. I'd love to hear some more stats

^I think you definitely have a chance!

SAT I: Not submitting
ACT: 34
SAT IIs: 800 USH, 790 WH, 750 Lit
APs: Five 5's
GPA: 1/~500
EC: Don't feel like writing them all. Writing focus.

I really liked W&L on the visit (so friendly!), but I want to learn an obscure language (Vietnamese) and have another dream school (Yale), plus I might want a bigger university atmosphere. We'll see though! If I'm fortunate enough to get the Johnson I may well attend.

Speaking of Johnson Scholarships...oops,I'd better hurry to send in my app><

I don't see myself too much of a chance though.

mediocre/sligtly low SAT:cr610(killing,will retake in Dec..),math770,w800
SATIIs:taken not known yet UShis,MathII,Lit...
3AP's last year:5,4,3(- -),self studying another two,will take them next May
ECs:I feel a bit obscure- -I'm an international,exchanged for one year in TX, was quite involved in different activities...but I now kinda feel this year interrupted my total dedication to MUN,for apparently i couldn't continue to do lots of things I just started in my 10th grade/the first year of HS in my country,but oh well.I gained a different view.

I want to major in international relations,want to know more about Latin American culture and literature..but,also interested in both maths like number theory and applied math.

That's basically about me...pressed on the time though.

Ha,good luck,y'all!

Hi,

international student = no APs
ECs- mostly academic (olympiads in every other subject), CHESS!! (very important for me), Boy Scout...


One question - when do we have to submit need-based aid forms?
