…SEVERAL marathons, too many to type.lol.

What are my chances of being accepted into Howard?
Also, I know my Freshman year grades were terrible, but my Jr. and Senior year grades were fantastic …Could I get academic scholarships for those two years?

And can I get athletic scholarships for Cross Country and Track even though I was JV and only did them for 2 years? I would have done them the first two years, but my grades were too bad.

Are there scholarships for Mock Trial?

The reason my grades were so bad Freshman and Sophomore year is because my father died right before Freshman year started. I was depressed.

So what are my chances?

I hope to double major in Sociology and History/Black Studies.

Thanks,
