So what do you think? Do I stand a chance at being accepted into these colleges? For the record, it's 11 at night, and I'm writing as my conciseness is seemingly fading, so my writing and grammar is not nearly what it is normally. Thanks!



I have over a 4.0 weighted, and a 3.85 unweighted. I have no real problems with money; with financial aid/scholarships, I can afford the schools of my choice.What are my chances of admission?
I don't know much about Richmond but you'll EASILY get into George Washington. In fact, you might even be over qualified.What are my chances of admission?
From your info it would see you would have no issue getting into the school you want to. If the schools want a paper with your application (of which all this will be on it) then they will look at that as well. But you seem like the perfect student, highly motivated and involved with the school/community.

You wont know until you apply. Good luck!
