Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I am a high school sophomore from Florida and it is my dream to go to UNC Chapel Hill. If there are any people that were accepted or rejected, I would really appreciate their input and tips on how to improve my chances of getting in. </p>

<p>I am a member of the AICE program at my high school, which is basically the equivalent of IB, but it is based out of Cambridge University. </p>

<p>Right now my class rank is 32 out of 769, which puts me in the top 4% of my class.</p>

<p>an unweighted gpa of 3.84 and an weighted gpa of 4.5. </p>

<p>1930 on a practice SAT</p>

<p>a member of student council and Interact (a service club) at my high school. </p>

<p>I have volunteered at my church for three years with toddlers every Sunday. </p>

<p>I also plan to volunteer at a nursing home this summer and get a job and next summer I plan to volunteer at a local hospital. </p>

<p>African American female (not sure if this helps or hurts my chances). </p>

<p>I have taken mostly taken honors, ap, and AICE classes and next year I am taking all AICE classes, except for ap spanish. </p>

<p>Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>I think you will need to raise your SAT score somewhat.</p>

<p>Getting in from out of state is not easy.</p>

<p>I’ve heard varied opinions on that actually; some say that getting in OOS is easier because you pay full tuition. Could anyone confirm or deny this?</p>

<p>Out-of-staters have it easier getting into UCs or UWA (UMI as well, but at a lesser extent) but UNC Chapel Hill? No. It has a 18% OOS quota. You may as well be applying at Duke if you were competitive for UNC OOS.</p>

<p>UNC: Reach (aim for 32+/2150+)</p>
