Hey there, I was just wondering if I had a decent shot at Yale. I am a registered Native American and have a 31 ACT. My goal was a 33, but I have a ton of extracurriculars, community service, and a few regional, state, national, and international art awards to make up for it. I also performed at Lincoln center with my school one year. I was just wondering if being a Native American was a hook and if it could make me stand out even with my low ACT? Im working on my Yale essays and I think they are coming along very well. Let me know your thoughts!

I am planning to major in Art so since it’s a less competitive major I didnt know if that would help either
