Hi everyone I am about to be a senior this fall and I am reallly hoping to go to MSU. i am applying to their fairly new residential college in the arts & humanities. I went to visit it during the spring and I met with one of the admissions directors for it and she really seemed to like me and I liked her. I got a great feeling when I was there, I knew it is the place I am meant to go.

School: Country Day School [very rigorous college prep school and my college counselor said MSU holds spots for country day kids]

GPA: this is just a guess but its probably a 3.3 unweighted ; I received an 84 average GPA for the end of Junior year. It was probably higher the past 2 yrs.

APs: i took AP psych [waiting for results of the test] and I am taking AP stats, AP photography and AP Shakespeare this upcoming year. i also took honors french

SAT: 500M 570CR 610W

ACT: Composite: 26 ; 28 English; 20 Math ; 29 Reading ; 27 Science ; 8 Writing [on 8-12 scale] And I know my math is low but I sent MSU the ACT I took before this and got a 23 in math .

EC: Freshman year: JV soccer, strength & conditioning, yearbook club, french club, choir
Sophomore year: JV soccer, strength & conditioning, yearbook club, french club, art & design
Junior year: V mountain biking, JV tennis, french club, diversity council, photography
senior year: V cross country, JV tennis, french club [treasurer], diversity council [will have a position], AP photography

Community service: 40+ hours ; babysat for my church , worked at a food bank ; took pictures at vacation bible school for a week ; helped out with a garden tour; worked at a dance recital

Internship: I had an internship at a courthouse with a Judge for the whole summer before 11th grade.

Recommendations: I am getting one from my English teacher. English is my passion and I have received high A's on all of my papers from this English teacher. She has been my teacher for 3 years in a row. She writes very good recommendations and quotes sentences from essays the student has written. ; I will also get a recommendation from the Judge I worked for because she got to know me personally and can give a good recommendation based on my characteristics and qualities.

Essay: I already wrote my essay because we had a whole workshop for a month on it in my junior English class. we learned how to write the best we can for college and what colleges are looking for. i received a 96 on it from my teacher so i will be sending that one in.

Classes: I have taken 5 english classes [2 senior year], 5 history classes [2 senior year], 4 sciences, 4 maths, 4 years of french, and i have taken art/photography or speech/health for every year. So i have taken as many if not more of the classes MSU recommends.

Improvement: This year, I really improved in most all of my classes. my hardest classes were AP psych and honors french. I went from a C- in the first semester of honors french to a B+ [86] by the end of the year. And for psych, I went from a C+ to being one point from an A-. I know MSU looks at improvement.

Sorry it's long, but whoever will chance me i will be very grateful! If you don't feel like chancing me, maybe you can tell me what you think of MSU acceptance and how hard/easy it is to get in Thank you!!
