Chance Me for UNC Chapel Hill? :D

Hello! UNC is a dream that keeps getting better the more and more I communicate with the university/research more about UNC. I’m still a junior, so these are my current stats! BUT, this will more or less be the stats I’m applying with, as I will be applying in August for early Action. (AHHH!) Chance me?

Race - White
Gender- Female
State - Florida! :smiley: (I am OOS for UNC :frowning: )

GPA:
UW - 3.93
W - 4.5

(These should go up before I apply, because I will be taking college courses this summer)

Class Rank: 9/427 (this should go up though, hopefully)

Classes:
I am a part of the Dual Enrollment program in my county, where I take classes at a local state college in conjunction with my classes at the high school. I currently am taking about 12 credit hours a semester, and will take 8 this summer. Additionally, the one class I take at the high school is a college-level math. When I graduate next year I will have my full AA degree (woo!), as well as additional AP credits.

Test Scores:
ACT: 30 (I just got my results from the first time I took it, but I’m retaking in June in hopes of getting a higher cumulative)
SAT: 1310 (but I won’t submit this one, just the ACT since it’s the highest.)

    -AP AB. Calc - taking Sr. year

    • I have spearheaded multiple fundraisers for this club and work closely with the sponsor and other officers.

-Job: Ritas’s Italian Ice (3 yrs. next year)

  • During the summers I work a 40-hr work week, as well as working 10-15 hrs a week during school weeks. (This is the reason I can’t do more EC’s, since I have to work because I need the money.)

    -Was accepted in Ashland Academy, a history and polisci. summer program run by Ashland University. I can earn 2 polisci creds from this, and think I may attend this summer based on finances.

Thank you so much for reading!! :smiley:

My biggest worry is being OOS, so I’d love to hear what you have to say!

I was in state, applied EA, and was accepted with a 33 and a 4.0 UW and a really rigorous coursework. I think you’re a great applicant, and you definitely deserve an acceptance from UNC, however, this year UNC rejected many oos applicants who were more competitive than most of the in state applicants who got accepted. Good luck, and I hope you get in!!
