I’m a Junior in high school currently, and am hoping to be accepted into Cal Poly SLO in the spring of my Senior year.

I will likely have a 3.5 GPA (weighted to CSU/UC standards), and a SAT score around 2000.

I will have done marching band for all four years, freshman band for one year, wind ensemble for three years, and for two of those three years, I will have been first trumpet.

I also have been accepted into the Santa Clara Country High School Honor band, and plan to audition again in my senior year.

My private music instructor is a senior professor at SJSU, and has held his post for thirty years.

In the fall of my senior year, i plan to audition for the Santa Clara Vanguard Cadet Corps.

All three years of high school that I took a social science, I will have taken an AP one, and in my junior year, I have additionally taken psychology, which counts as an additional social science.

Also, I plan to apply with the early decision option, which will bind my choice to Cal Poly.

I plan to go to Cal Poly to seek either a Music or Political Science Major, or possibly a double major.

What are my chances of getting in, and should I take this course of action?

Also, what other choices/colleges/plans do you recommend?

Thanks for the help.
