Hi Mr. Aerospace Athlete! I feel we may have someone really special here. There are so many facets about your profile that just leave me wanting to learn more! So, you’ve already nailed that hook in the short time you took to build your profile here… so now, all you need to do is take that same approach to have those Booth AdCom’s hungry for more (i.e. via the interview invite!). You are clearly very committed to serving your community (youth mentor), your school (alumni president), your country (improving military capabilities), and yet also seem to find the time to serve yourself as well (D1 athlete)- this is very commendable!

I can imagine that you were pulled in many directions as a student athlete in an intense field, and perhaps that explains your GPA. I hope we can tease out a story around “figuring out how to prioritize/plan” with a progressively better GPA as you entered your senior year… or some other strong rationale for your sub-optimal GPA. If you can do that, I’d place my bets on you with an above-50% odds! Go get ’em Mr. Aerospace Athlete!
