<p>How nice looking is the campus? This is probably my last deciding factor if I want to apply early decision or not. Please let me know!</p>
<p>It’s really nice and not at all what you would expect from an urban campus. I went there reluctantly for the tour, but as soon as I walked down Locust Walk, I felt at home. You don’t feel like you’re in a city at all. And the Quad dorms look like freakin’ Hogwarts!</p>
<p>see for yourself</p>

<p>oh wow! the campus is gorgeous! :)</p>
<p>You should really visit if it is such an important factor.</p>
<p>If I am pursuing the full IB, and I am currently learning three languages, french, spanish and english, hopefully, I will soon be adding a fourth language, Japanese. . I am involved in sports outside of school, soccer and tennis, I am captain of both teams. Then I am also involved in leadership, where right now I am a representative of IHS for my school’s branch and I am class president at my school. Next year I am going to try to be class president again, and then I am going to try to be Vice-President for IHS for my branch. I am also involved with National Honor Society where I hope to be president next year. </p>
<p>The last thing I am really involved in is community service. I am going to start a program in my city that helps Latino minorities with their studies if they are having troubles because of language barriers or family problems if they just moved here from another country. I have good reasons for doing this because a) I am a latino and I know what it’s like and b) I have helped students like this one on one and think it would just be better if we had an organized setting or group.
About my latino-ness( that’s what my friends call it), I am not a first generation and I am Argentine.
My unweighed GPA is around 3.8 and I am not sure what my SAT scores will be. I took a practice one last year with out really knowing what was going on, and scored a 1610. I know it’s not good, but I know I will improve.
What do you think my chances would be? now that i’ve seen (virtually seen) the campus, i’m really excited to apply!</p>
<p>i was the same way mike!!!</p>
<p>and were you accepted?! that’s great!</p>
