UNC-CH only accept 20 % OOS

Allegheny College has biopsychology, you might get merit there

Did you run net price calculators at all the college websites?

26

Sorry, got mixed up. It is Geneva College, not Allegheny.

27

ALSO IMPORTANT: The 8.5 AP is for the entirety of HS. Additionally, I would like to correct the Honors to 3. If I were to rate the rigor of my courses, I would say 9/10 (10 being every class; I only skipped on about 2 classes).

I think you have a pretty good shot at Georgetown. Great connections, good experience and extra-curriculars. Low GPA but honestly, a 5.0 weighted will definitely help a lot on that aspect. SATs are a little bit below average, but as you are first generation, your chances will be a lot higher. Given GU is 16.4% acceptance, I would put it up to 40-50%? But early action will also help. So, its definitely a possibility!

I’d say that you could get into most of the except for the usual “hard” universities:UCLA, Cal, Cornell. Possible wait list for the first two UC’s…overall you should be buying college gear and getting ready for an amazing 4 years!!!
