<p>Hi! I am a high school senior who is mostly white (I am also native american). I’m a girl, and I come from a low-income family. </p>
<p>I attend a high school that is an early-college program – it is like post-secondary on steroids! Throughout the four years of high school, I take high school classes that are college-class oriented (set up just like a college class) and I also attend a local college amongst other “traditional” college students to obtain enough college credits to get not one, but TWO Associate’s Degrees. Although the degrees do not come from a reputable college, they are nevertheless still worth college credit.</p>
<p>I am not concerned about credit transfer, just whether or not I have the potential to be an attractive applicant to Harvard.</p>
<p>Extra Curricular Activities:
-Rotary INTERACT Club (volunteer service, 4 years)
-Founded/Initiated an H-PAC for medical-career exploration at my school
-Student Council Class Rep (we do not have presidents/vice-presidents, just class rep’s)
-Ohio State University Young Scholar Program
-Upward Bound College Program
-School-brand of a volunteer program, working with Habitat for Humanity and other not-for-profit organizations
-Professional networking/professional development school program
-Service Learning Tutoring
-Model United Nations (President/Executive of my country)</p>
<p>On top of all of this, I work nearly full-time at a restaurant. I have a 4.0 college and high school GPA (unweighted) and I have letters of recommendations from people who are very reputable in the professional network of my geographical area in addition to LOR’s from my counselor, employer, principal (who I have known for 6 years), and my past teachers.</p>
<p>I took the ACT and was not too happy with my results so I am taking the SAT. I will report scores once they are sent back. (I realize this is a huge part of admission).</p>
<p>How will my application look to Harvard or other ivy-league schools?</p>
