This year, I applied through the test-optional program. I have about the same SAT score and GPA and extra C’s similar to yours. I got into American and got wait listed by U. richmond, Syracuse, and Bentley and rejected to Santa Clara.

I’m not saying you’re guaranteed to get into AU if you apply test optional but it will definitely help. I didn’t get any scholarships but i did get a lot of aid.

Au really likes students who are engaged in the community and have that drive and want to make a difference in the world. They like students who are genuinely passionate so if this is you, make sure you show it in your essay, because they will notice it!!!

Good luck!!
