<p>It is very difficult to assess chances for international students. I don’t feel that I am really qualified to do so. However, Swarthmore does have quite a few students from Eastern Europe and you look like a very strong applicant.</p>
<p>If you haven’t already done so, you should e-mail the basketball coach and work that angle.</p>
<p>I think your interest in both studio art and physics will be a plus as well. I suspect Swarthmore makes a concerted effort to find potential physics majors because the engineering department siphons off a lot of those students.</p>
