Hi! I am very interested in attending Notre Dame, it is my top school, and has been for several years.

I attend a Catholic high school in southern VA, Hampton Roads area. We don’t report class rank, btw.

GPA: 4.49 weighed (not sure UW)
Rigor of classes has been the most difficult I can. We have mandated regular Theology, but other than that all honors and AP.

Scores: AP Euro (5) APUSH (4) Won’t report AP Calc AB, was not good. I’m also taking AP Lit and AP Microeconomics this year.

We also have a lot of dual enrollment/college-level classes to make up for lack of ap. I’ve taken dual enrollment American Lit, and dual enrollment Bio.

SAT: 1410/1600

SAT Subject Test: 690 on Literature, 710 on US History

Extracurriculars/Awards:

Cross Country (3 years, Manager fourth) Our team is state-winning two years in a row. I’m managing this year because I had a fracture early in the season and I decided it would be better to be manager, so I could still be on the team.

NHS - since sophomore year

Spanish Honor Society - since sophomore year (Secretary Junior Year)

Student Council:
Homeroom Representative Freshman year
Class Secretary Sophomore Year
Class President Senior Year

Member of the INTERACT Club (Service Club) and the Green Club as well

In the Math honor society, Mu Alpha Theta.

I volunteer at a position at a museum in my area biweekly, and have also volunteered with the local Youth Volunteer Corps and at my church’s nursery.

I attended Girls’ State and was a Party Delegate/City Council Member there.

I also have a paid Sales Associate job at Justice, the little kids’ store.

Have attended the UVA Young Writer’s Workshop Program two years in a row, is pretty selective. I also went to ND Vision last year at Notre Dame.

Hooks:
My essays are really strong, and I should have awesome counselor (I’m really close with him) and teacher recs.

I’m legacy, both my parents attended, graduating in '90 and '92.
