I'm a senior at a small private Christian University. I'm double majoring in Biblical Studies and Biblical languages. Here's some other info:
3.75 GPA
3 years of Hebrew
1 year of Greek
Vice President of the Alpha Chi honor society
I have a 110ish hours of total community service
I participated in a mentoring ministry at a local youth transitional living home (from foster care to independent living) with other students from my university. We hung out with the teens there, played games, and took them around town hoping to be positive influences during difficult times of transition.
I also volunteered in local jail ministry where I would lead several short services or Bible studies over a three hour period with the men living there. I did that for a total of 18 hours
I was on the board for setting up a large food distribution center held at the small church I attended. In conjunction with a government organization (Ozark Food Harvest), this small church of 75 people now feeds over 600 local individuals and families ever two weeks. This with the help of interdenominational volunteers and donations—I am immensely honored to have helped start this service. I did that for a total of 70 hours.
I'm applying to:
Yale, Vanderbilt, and Asbury (as well as two local fall-back type schools).
What are the chances of decent funding from these schools?
