Hi! So excited to see this thread. Thought I’d introduce myself.
I’m lanning on majoring in religious studies and minoring in political science and maybe classics as well - who knows.
I’ve applied to Baylor, TCU, Notre Dame, USC, Oklahoma, Colorado, Vanderbilt, Stanford, LSU, UNC Chapel Hill, Duke, Wake Forest, Virginia, Tennessee, Florida, Georgia, Nebraska, South Carolina, and Alabama.
Definitely a lot but I’m not full pay so need either financial aid or a merit scholarship and I’m not applying anywhere in the UK - all in on the US.
GCSEs - 9999988777, predicted 4 A*s in my A-levels, 1420 SAT (went test-optional at all T20s)
EC wise I’ve done a lot with my church - 15+ hours a week and have done an internationally broadcast talk alongside an Oxford theology professor. I also run a theology blog, am a carer for special needs children, part of four school clubs, done lots of genealogy research, and have done two national chess tournaments.
So far I’ve been accepted to TCU, Oklahoma, Alabama, LSU, Nebraska, Tennessee, and South Carolina. Deferred from Georgia and rejected from Notre Dame.
Looking forward to getting to know everyone!
