<p>If you are being considered for an academic scholarship at Muhlenberg, you will be sent an application for an Honors program, for which you have to write an essay (this is before your acceptance even comes in). My D didn’t apply for it (she was SO done writing essays) and she already had a preferred acceptance in hand, but she still was offered the Presidential Scholarship (a different award) upon her acceptance. </p>
<p>Her stats were better than yours, but I think that you have a good chance of getting offered something because of your SAT scores.</p>
<p>Your GPA looks a bit low, but it’s difficult to know how tough the grading is at your school. That’s why I asked you about class rank. Our school doesn’t rank either, but they do have a profile that they send to the colleges, and which we see as well, that shows the grade distribution so that the colleges can get a sense of where the student fits in the context of that school. Small private schools probably don’t issue this? But, still, if your 84 is middle of the road at your school, that’s one thing; if A’s really aren’t given much at all, that’s another!</p>
