I didn’t do perfectly in high school — I did do well junior year, but senior year was definitely a big slip for me on account of my dad getting laid off.

Even if I do extremely well in college, will first year transferring be weighed down by my high school grades?

When I was put on the waitlist, I just gave a quick two sentence or so update confirming my interest.
A week later, when I realized it needed to be more substantive, I wrote an actual full letter including an extracurricular update… and I just realized that I never actually sent it. Well I just sent it now, but is it too late?

I’d really like to get off the waitlist and attend Colby.

I’d like to be in the more diverse pool of roommates but I don’t know if more people do all-gender housing or just same-gender. I’m male if that’s relevant.

Like Johns Hopkins SAIS, Georgetown SFS, etc. With high grades, great letters of rec, and internships and whatnot, how hard would it be to get into top master’s?
