hi, I’m a sophomore in high school and I really want to go to Georgetown and study neuroscience. I have a gpa of 3.825 and I’m in the top 5% of my class. I was captain of my softball team and also play basketball and am really involved in the performing arts. I volunteer at my church, spend my spring breaks on mission trips, and tudor after school. I am in honors english, AP European history and all the rest are accel classes. I plan on taking 6-7 more AP classes while I’m in high school. Is there anything else I can do to ensure my acceptance? Do I even have a chance of getting in?

Your stats match perfectly with Georgetown’s averages. There should be no reason you do not get in. As a safety also consider applying to fellow top Jesuit colleges Boston College and Holy Cross.
