Hello!
I was deferred from NC State for EA and wondering what my chances might be for acceptance into NCSU. I applied for Social Work as my first choice major and Sociology as my second choice.
In-State rural county (NC)
GPA: UW 3.44 W 3.96
Rank: 51/184
ACT: 30 (25M, 28E, 32R, 33S)
2 AP’s (Human Geo and Bio, 3’s on both exams)
8 dual enrollment classes through local CC
EC’s:
4 years apart of the school jazz band (I have a leadership position within the class & auditioned at the district level and made the highest score)
4 years apart of theater at school (7 shows total, stage managing my final show)
3 years apart of SGA (Sophomore class president & SGA secretary for 2 years)
3 years apart of a service club at school
Apart of NHS and International Thespian Society
3 internships throughout high school (one with a local arts forum, one at the local elementary school, and one with a licensed social worker)
Working part-time throughout the school year
Community service with Rotary events, SPCA, and hurricane relief
Essay/Rec Letters: I really liked my essay, I wrote about how I lose track of time playing my instrument and how I turned to the people around me when I wanted to learn more. I had a past English teacher who knows me very well write me a rec letter as well as one of the staff members of a leadership camp I attended who works at NCSU.
When I was deferred EA, I wrote a LOCI and uploaded it to my portal. NC State is my dream school and any feedback would be welcome!! Thanks
