Hey everyone, I applied RD to Lehigh, and I’m from Tunisia ( In case you don’t know it, it’s in North-Africa ). Would you please chance me ?? Here are my stats.

SAT : 2110, M : 720, CR : 740, W : 650.
GPA : 17.5 out of 20, that’s like having a 3.9 GPA in america.
High School : VERY competitive, i got into it after a national exam at the end of 9th grade, so only the best in the state get to go there.
I speak four languages fluently : arabic french english and spanish. And i speak some german and some russian (self-taught).

ECs : i did 300+ hours volunteering and i started a community service club at my school ( it’s very uncommon in Tunisia ), i was an exchange student in the USA for 10 months, did some volunteering then. I volunteered at a refugee camp south of Tunisia during the Libyan Revolution. I taught 13 year-olds english ( my brother and some of his friends ) for two summers, helped at cleaning campaigns around the city, i’m a representative of my class in student govmnt. One last thing, i took part in a revolution ( don’t know if i can count that as an EC ).

Teacher and Counselor rec : Good.

Essays : I thought they were pretty good. I had my adviser at an EducationUSA center read them and she said they wwere just prefect.

No major awards, we don’t have that kind of stuff in my country.

I applied for LOADS of aid.

Thanks for reading through all this, I really appreciate it.
