i am a junior from orange county, CA. i have had my heart “set” on Elon since summer after freshman year (although i haven’t been to campus yet, i will before i apply!). i want to go sooo badly and i feel as if it has everything i am looking for in a college.

about me:

4.0 weighted GPA
2 APs this year, 2 APs next year (senior year)
officer of make a wish club
president and founder of a community service club
CSF Award- 4 years recipient
Dolphin Pride Award (Com Service) - 4 years recipient
NHS - 2 year recipient
4 years of both Water Polo and Swim sports teams
Member at-large of my city’s youth board
attending a well known nationally ranked high school
involved in my church
haven’t taken sat/act yet (i estimate i will get somewhere around a 1800)

basically, i am not the smartest person ever. i am only taking 4 APs total in high school (i know that’s embarrassing compared to other people). however- i consider myself well rounded. i do well in school, sports, and community service. community service is especially important to me. i am very ambitious and hard working. i want to be a business major, and after go to law school.

i hope to apply early decision or action.

what are my chances of acceptance? regular and early decision?

also, i neeeeeed financial aid. it’s a must. how good is elon about giving partial scholarships to students like me?

any/all advice is greatly appreciated. thanks so much!!!
