Hey, 17 year old high school junior here. I'm looking to apply to WashU this winter, but I'm not sure if I'm 'qualified' to get in. I have a 4.0 unweighted, 4.445 weighted GPA, 1400 SAT score, multiple honors societies, lots of service hours, one sport, a few clubs, A+ certification, and I'm about to earn my Eagle Scout award this summer. WashU has been my dream school for a couple years now, but I know it's super competitive. Do I have a good shot at getting in? Is there anything I can do more? Just really nervous about the next year and anything would help.
