Likelihood of Acceptance?

I know I still have 2 more years of high school to go before college, but I saw a thread like this in the forums today, coupled with the feedback the poster got and it made me wonder: Basically, I want to apply to Hampton, FAMU, and NC A&T. As of now I have a 3.7 Cummulative GPA (with most all honors and/or AP courses). Im a part of the National Honor Society, I am a South Carolina Junior Scholar and a part of the Duke University TIProgram, President of GS Tropp, Unarmed OIC (Commander) SC-933 Drill Team, and I play Track, Volleyball, and Tennis. Besides that I volunteer for TeenLine and Charleston County Parks and Recreation year-round, plus GS does a lot of community service. I'm also starting the IB program next year. So if I kept up how I'm doing (adding a few more extracirriculars and hopefully raising my GPA) for the next 2 years, what do you think is the likelihood that I get accepted into any of those schools I listed? (I'm also taking the SAT this year. I took the SAT in 7th grade through the Duke TIProgram and got a 900 ((old scale)) and the PSAT in 8th through SC Junior Scholars, and didnt do bad on that either, so I'm not to worried about my scores.)

You're fine. The main thing to really worry about when trying to get accepted int o any school is financial aid if you aren't wealthy. For you, you wouldn't have to worry about that. You're obviously a well-rounded student and you can definitely count on a full ride. I don't think any school would refuse you that. I was recently accepted into Howard as a transfer with a perfect GPA and with less than great high school grades, lol. Since I'd proven that I could actually do the work and drew the attention away from my mediocre high school grades, they offered me a wonderful deal. Look forward to college, because you sure worked hard for it.
