<p>Good GPA, good religious volunteer work, great soccer background (do you plan to play at Santa Clara?–they will consider this given their soccer team’s importance relative to other sports at the school). Tough courseload.</p>

<p>I’d say try to get the SATs into the 600+ range, get the President or VP job at the Interact club and spend a few more hours on the volunteer work and you’ll have no problem. Also, see if there is any way to get leadership with the soccer team on the resume (#1 in state is already very impressive).</p>

<p>Personally I think with 600+ on the SATs and two SAT IIs in the 630+ range, you will be a lock at Santa Clara–and a safe match to match at Boston University.</p>

<p>You have a way higher chance if you ED a school like SC because they are really trying to up yield. They also really want to add non W. Coast kids. If you are a full payer from E. Coast I think you have a good shot ED.</p>
