Schools Applied</p>

<p>-UCLA
-USC (I’m interviewing there this weekend for a full scholarship)
-UC Berkeley
-Stanford
-Some Ivies (2 of the Ivy League interviewers basically said I was a “perfect fit for their school”, but the interview isn’t much weight in the admissions process)
-NYU
-Northwestern
-U of Chicago</p>

<p>I think my academics are decent (not stellar), and my “hook” is the acting, because I don’t think many of their applicants are as heavily involved in theater, film, tv, etc.</p>

<p>I forgot something, I’m a peer advisor/educator for HIV/AIDS awareness and prevention</p>

<p>-UCLA: Good shot, but you are OOS
-USC (I’m interviewing there this weekend for a full scholarship)
-UC Berkeley: Ditto as UCLA
-Stanford: slight reach/reach (as it is for practically everyone)
-Some Ivies (2 of the Ivy League interviewers basically said I was a “perfect fit for their school”, but the interview isn’t much weight in the admissions process): ditto as Stanford
-NYU: safe match
-Northwestern: match
-U of Chicago: match</p>

<p>I think you have a good chance of being admitted to at least one Ivy or Stanford.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Wait, so what exactly is your name?</p>

5

<p>my name is Jona. Thank you very much sfgiants for the evaluation. My thoughts were along your lines, except I am almost positive I won’t make it into Stanford, because their application didn’t allow for you to elaborate that much. And they don’t interview, so I don’t think they would think I stand out at all (ex. I didn’t get to send an acting resume, etc. because they don’t accept extra ‘stuff’). I think compared to the average applicant, interviews help me a little more, just because I am completely comfortable talking with strangers, etc.</p>
