Do you think I have a good chance of getting into......

Howard? I just received my ACT scores and I didn't like it so I'm retaking it but it's a 21. My cumulative GPA is a 3.7 and I've been in about 10 clubs since 9th grade and I'm doing a lot of community activities........I am kind of stuck on the essay......I can't get my thoughts together right now. I have writer's block & I'm kind of stressed.......... :???:

I dont' know about the ACT or how it plays into acceptance at Howard, but it sounds like you have a good shot. As long as they feel you're a well rounded student thats gonna handle business, then they should be inclined to take you. Don't be stressed out now, you got plenty of time to do that later.

I think you have a pretty good chance of getting in, just retake that ACT and aim for the Legacy scholarship, because the thing you should be worrying most about is getting money from them.

thanks but don't you have to get a 26 in order to get the lowest scholarship?

I think your chances are great, but like someone else said, you should try and aim for the scholarship so you can get some money lol. I got a 23 on my ACTs for the first time and I don't feel like taking them again, so I'm taking my SATs this Saturday and hopefully I can break my goal. I need that scholarship lol.

^^^^really? that's good. That was my 1st time taking it and my family was proud of me because i'm eligible for the Hope scholarship. Every1's face was like this....... :grin: while mine's........well.....this

You'll get in lol...at this point you don't need to worry about admissions...worry about financial aid/scholarships...you would've increased your chances if you had applied early action...just make sure you get that application in ASAP...

damnit ACT and SAT are singular. yeah u can get into howard. if u wanna pay for it.

^^^ not really lol....I thought I did really bad so I had signed up to take it again before my scores came back.......
