Hey, I am a white male from North Carolina. I have fallen in love with Yale, I just don't want to get my hopes up after seeing everyone else who was on here.

Drama: I have quite an extensive acting resume. I have been in an independent film, worked on commercials, done many main stage productions, and have been on national television before. I work for a respected agent in my city and will be submitting an acting resume.


Attended NC Governor's School, Junior Statesmen at Stanford and been the first to go to Germany with Deutsch in Deutschland and the first high school student who secured an internship at the Public Defender's Office of Charlotte.

I have good essays, good reccomendations, and had a good interview.

I'm not trying to show off or not show off. I'm just trying to show who I am and see if that's good enough to get into Yale.

Plus, no one ever suspects me of being smart(-ish) unless I want them to. I'm a lot of fun.

I think you have a GREAT chance. that acting thing could be really neat, also german study stands out as something quite unusual and impressive (i've heard german is pretty hard). good luck

i don't know how much the acting will help, if it helps a lot then you're maybe 50/50 or a little better, if not then your chances are ok but not anything to count on
