Kenyon is one of the eight schools my daughter is interested in! She has one friend who has already committed to go there for baseball.

Kenyon does mark Academic Transcript as “very important.”
Standardized test scores are “important,” so one notch down, but still important.

According to the Common Data Set, their 25th-75th for SAT is
630-740 verbal
640-740 math
So you are below the range on verbal, but above it on math. Hopefully given that you are an international student, they will take that into consideration, especially if the first language of your country of origin is not English!

(ACT range reported as 29-33 composite,
31-35 for English
26-31 for Math.)

OBSERVATION: I don’t know if this is always true, but according to the Common Data Set, for the class which entered in Fall 2017, 334 applied early decision and 233 were accepted! So your plan to apply ED seems like a wise one, if you are able to pay. (The one downside to ED is you cannot compare financial aid packages.)

Good luck!
