Your GPA might be a bit low but other stats are fine so I think you have a good shot, especially as you offer diversity through your ethnic and OOS status (those things are definitely considered). What is your back-up college?
D2 is waiting on a decision to CLA as well. Her SAT a bit lower than yours, GPA a bit higher. I think she has a decent chance (CDes is her second choice and her stats are good enough for one of those choices) but I don’t think it’ll be a quick decision. Hopefully yours will be faster. We are in-state and they do seem to process OOS applications more quickly (at least it seems that way to me).
