I am an international student, located in Romania, who’s applying to these schools for 11th grade:
Milton Academy
Emma Willard School
The Lawrenceville School
Lawrence Academy
St. Paul’s School
Deerfield Academy
Philips Academy Andover
I have a GPA of 4.0 , no financial aid needed, I am currently attending one of the best private high schools in Romania, but Im first gen to these schools. My English is good, with my Duolingo English Test of 145.
In my opinion, my essays are well structured and show my true self, along with all my weak points and strengths. Most of my interviews went well, and a few days ago I had another meeting with someone from Emma Willard, where I gave her some updates. I think I managed to resonate with most of the interviewers, no matter on what subject. I submitted 4 LoR and I think they are pretty good!
People say I have a positive and resilient personality, and have a strong sense of leadership, which I have also shared in my interviews. One of my problems was, due to where I live, I was unable to take any exam but the duolingo, therefore most waived them.
For sports, I do handball, swimming, and golf, and my best subjects are English and history.
EXTRACURRICULARS
- currently in the 2025 march of living program
- multiple MUN diplomas
- took today the second stage of the English olympiad
- 2 day ambassador
- diplomacy course
- I have more but cannot think of them right now
Could anyone chance me? I keep overthinking everything and it’s so frustrating! Thanks! Good luck to everyone applying!
