Isn’t the decision coming soon?

For psych - certainly a chance. But you’ll know soon enough.

Are you full pay ? I believe my alma mater is need aware. That will help.

My S was accepted RD last year (went elsewhere) with overall slightly lower stats. He was accepted midway through the decision rollout to Maxwell with a Policy Studies major. SAT 1420, GPA 3.6 UW / 4.5 W, six AP classes (all 4’s) and tons of honors level courses at a competitive (test in) inner city high school. Probably below average ECs but an excellent essay (several ACs actually hand wrote comments to him about the essay). We were full pay. Did some virtual stuff but no visit or interview.
