"In-state applicants with minimum 3.0 GPA "
not sure if they round 2.997->3.0
average gpa is 3.53, and you didn’t tell your sat/act score.
chances are small, but since you have a prof giving you a rec from the university itself that will definitely help your chances, though you should definitely try to get a higher sat/act than their average for a shot.
