@“TNstudent’99”
Why not ED2? If you really want to go?
What is your UW GPA?

3

@VANDEMORY1342 Because I don’t know how much scholarship money I will receive, and if I get none that would mean I would be paying full cost. I do not know my UW GPA because my transcript doesn’t list it as well as rank.

Well I;m going to say low Reach, I feel a 33 is the avg for this year, and I assume your UW is at
least a 3.8. Your EC’s are above avg.

@VANDEMORY1342 thank you! Are merit scholarships out of the question for me?

6

Probably, you might receive $15,000 AT THE MOST. Did you do the EFC?

I did and received disappointing results. Thanks for all your help! @VANDEMORY1342
