GWU is my TOP choice; i’m highly considering applying ED … it’s easier to get in, right?

anyway, i’m just going to give you the bare bones here

GPA: 4.0
class rank: 1
ACT: 28 (fairly low, i know – should I retake it?)
activities: 3 yrs varsity tennis, NHS (treasurer), big brothers big sisters, michigan youth in gov, honor student award soph yr, working towards 200 hrs comm. service, marching/concert band, 4 yrs French, confirmed good teacher rec, from small rural town in Mich., white female

i’d absolutely LOVE to go to GW and live in DC. i’d like to major in international relations … my brother happens to be a US diplomat and if i do end up going to GW he will coincidentally be in DC preparing for his next post!

i’d love feedback though as to what I can do to make sure I get in, thanks :)
