Hi!
I’m a bright and bubbly African American Senior Graduating this year, and I was wondering what chances I might have to be admitted to the University of Florida. I am looking at an Agricultural Science major. Thank you so much and any input will be well received.

(My school doesn’t offer many honors, AP, or IB courses, only dual-enrollment at the nearby community colleges, so I have taken 13 classes there, with 10 A’s, 2 B’s, and 1 C.
ECs
Not many, my school is online and has no actual clubs, other than NHS.

Over 100hrs volunteer work

Thank you guys so much for any input! You may have seen this post on another thread, but honestly, I am just searching for different opinions and information to increase my chances!
