<p>I attended a small rural high school for my Freshmen and Sophomore years of high school, and had a 4.0 G.P.A and a 1 of 115 class rank. At this point I decided to apply to an early-entrance-to-college type program. This program replaces your Junior and Senior years of high school, though you technically haven’t graduated high school yet. In this program students forgo the traditional high school experience and live in a college campus, taking only college classes. We are required to take certain classes, and we graduate with our Associate’s in Math and Science, as well as our high school diplomas. As of this point in the program my stats are:
Unweighted G.P.A: 3.39 (College Courses only)

<p>I’m applying as a Freshman at these schools since I will technically graduate high school in June. I know that because of my G.P.A. some of the schools are completely unrealistic, I was just wondering if I have any chance at all at these schools. I’m considering applying early decision to American University to ensure I get into a school on the East Coast, but I’d rather not early decision if possible. I’m interested in International Affairs/Finance, and I’m especially interested in living in France for a few years.</p>
