With a 3.0 UW gpa, HYPS are all large reaches. Are you a recruited athlete or have you been recognized by these schools for athletics?
@AznDude525 oh im new to this site. didnt see the typo. uw gpa is 3.5
My friend had very similar stats and ECs and ended up going to UC Merced
I’m assuming you are not getting recruited anywhere? Unfortunately, with your gpa if you don’t have very significant other ECs that you didn’t mention, you might be shut out of every school on your list. I think you should add some match and safety schools. In any event, good luck! Great tests scores, btw.
@college__bound987 - though you have great SAT / ACT scores and very good AP scores, unfortunately due to your GPA, you are going to have to shoot much lower than any of the schools currently on your list. Where did you apply EA or ED?
I think you need a safety.
