I’m applying RD to Gallatin, all my stats (i think) are fine with the exception of my ACT score. I’m hoping because my GPA and ranking are good then that’ll make up for a low ACT score. Also, I’m applying to Gallatin with the intention of doing a concentration in fashion business/journalism and I have so many ECs involving fashion, journalism, business throughout my four years of high school.
