I sent out recruiting tapes to 4 universities over the holidays.  I also sent out a portfolio of all my personal achievements and newspaper clippings.  I'm still waiting for the results of my ACT test in October.  I feel good about it, I think I upped my score.  This has been a long process.  I still have 3 colleges to send my transcripts to and officially apply by Dec 1st.  I will also make some more tapes and send them off.
