My top choice is Mount Holyoke. I’m also applying to Bay Path College, American International College, and Stonehill College. Though, if it doesn’t seem as is any of the above would accept me would you please recommend one that possibly would? Please and thank you~

Okay, so freshman year my private all girls high school closed down and I had to transfer to another private school closer to home.
Sophomore year was difficult for me because I was going into a place were I had to start all over again. It also didn’t help that I was suffering from mild depression at that time and my grades dropped horrendously. For the first time in my life I got a D in one of my classes and well… it was just really really bad. Though, I’m doing a lot better this year so hopefully I can make it up somehow.

My grades are usually A’s and B’s.
I go to a pretty intense Private High School.
I’m hispanic.
I help out at my parent’s bakery now and again so I have an undertsanding of how business works.

Gpa- 3.3
Major I want to go into- Psychology
Minors- Art Studio, Latin, and possibly Japanese.

Outside of School

I’ve done horse back riding for 6 or so years.

Community service:
Freshman year I volunteered at my old elementary school by helping out with the sets.

Awards:
I got second Honors Freshman year and I’m working on getting them this year too.
I got an outstanding Achievement award in the National Latin exam Freshman year.

Other:
I’m fluent in 2 languages, Spanish and English, and I’m currently teaching myself Latin and Japanese.
Freshman year I got into Spanish 3 honors, which rarely ever happened in my school.
Sophomore year I was in Spanish 4 honors, which is one of the highest levels my school offers.

I know I’m still a junior and I still have another year to go before I actually apply, but I just want to know my chances of getting into those schools and what I could possibly do to increase my chances.
