<p>I plan on applying to my first choice school(private) early so that I am eligible for the Catholic Student scholarship(there are only a few). My grades were not the best my junior year due to a medical issue and I did explain that in my personal statement/essay and how I plan to make straight A’s this year. The school has rolling admissions and I want them to see my Fall semester of senior year grades so they can see that I really am trying. Do you think it would be bad to hold off until then to send in my transcripts? Should I write them a note explaining why I am waiting until then to send in my transcripts, what should I do. I am also currently making up a class and I should be done by the first week of November. Should I just wait until THEN to apply/send in my application? My GPA is a B- which is relatively low but I have a pretty impressive e/c list, personal statement, and I also write for an online magazine. Another thing, I am from out of state, do you think I am at an advantage or disadvantage when applying to an out of state private school?</p>
<p>Also, what NY colleges/universities do you think I have a chance at getting admitted to in NY as a B- student. </p>
