I’m a rising senior in a competitive public high school in Loudoun County. VT is my top choice, and I’m going to be applying early decision. I’m planning on double majoring in geography and political science, and doing the Corps of Cadets. My stats are:
I’m from Loudoun County too. According to Naviance my school in LCPS has a average of a 3.95 GPA when applying to Tech. On VT’s website they listed their average GPA from 2017 in the 3.9 range and average SAT as a 1250. These stats probably went up in 2018, as it was a very competitive application process. However, your GPA is still in the safety range for VT. Your SAT is also above average. Your ACT converts to a higher SAT score than your 1330, so maybe try submitting that instead of your SAT. You have good leadership positions and EC’s. I wouldn’t say Tech is a safety school for you but it is a for sure a doable target school.
It hasn’t updated yet for this fall’s incoming class where the overall acceptance rate dropped to something like 56% with corresponding increases in both average GPA and test scores. That being said, I think the admissions stats can vary quite a bit by school and major. So, don’t let that freak you out.
