Going to a college program there might have helped. It's also great that you are a girl scout and being a minority might help too. I'm a Latina girl scout too! From experience, Girl Scouts will look great.
However, your tests need to be retaken. Most of Georgetown's students get above 2000 (new SAT) and your score isn't horrible but it's just average. Georgetown does not want just average so keep that in mind when you apply. Good Luck with everything!

The fact that you took summer classes there may help. But your SAT scores are considerably lower than the typical Georgetown student. Couple that with the fact that you have no GPA or (apparently) rank in clss, and I'm afraid that things don't look great for you.

what was the reason for your "not so grade standardized tests"? whatever it was, it needs to be quite compelling because i do not see you getting into georgetown. try transferring your sophomore year. good luck.
