What should I be doing to increase my chances for getting accepted into college as class of 2027 ?
Hello, I have a 3.3 GPA and a 20 ACT. I have done theater all years of highschool and am a Thespian who is also going to ITF. I have been a lifeguard for 4 years. I have a marketing internship that I got in the middle of junior year and I run and manage social media for 2 businesses that are under the same manager. I still have one more trimester before applying to college and I plan to apply early action for all colleges. These are the colleges I am applying to: PBA, UTAMPA, FAU, USF, UMIAMI. I am very worried because my ACT score is very low, but if the school is test optional I will not be submitting my score. I am wondering what I can do to better my chances and make sure I get into these colleges and maybe get scholarships too. I plan to major in marketing and minor in theater only if I get scholarship money for it, if I don't get scholarship money I will minor in advertising and social media. I have taken all the theater classes my school offers, along with many honors classes and these AP classes: APUSH (C), AP Psych (A), AP LANG (A), AP CHEM (D), and I plan to take AP Stats, another AP English, and APES. I also am taking Marketing and plan to take sports and entertainment marketing next year.
