<p>I just received a letter in the mail saying I was awarded presidential scholar. I was wondering if this means I now have a really good shot for Barrett.</p>
<p>Yes, I think you have a good shot for Barrett.</p>
<p>Thanks! I figured as much but its nice to hear it from another person.</p>
<p>Your chances at Barrett are good but get your application in (along with letters of rec.) right away. Historically the out of state applications come in Dec. and Jan. and many spaces are taken so time if of the essence… Last year many highly qualified students were turned away because they waited until Feb. to apply.</p>
<p>i already sent it in, so now I just have to hope for the best!</p>
