<p>Ummm… I don’t think you have enough extracurriculars and your SAT and ACT scores are really lacking. I’m sure The Aveda Institute Chapel Hill would take you though…</p>

<p>(PS- I’m kidding. You’ll get in. And if not, you’ll get in somewhere else impressive, like Emory.)</p>

<p>I would say you are in. Chapel Hill’s OOS admissions is VERY competitive, but I think you have what it takes. You are going for a very limited number of spots. When I took a tour of Chapel Hill they said that they accepted around 1000 out of state students last year.</p>

<p>Thank you both for your kind and helpful responses!!</p>

<p>I’m going to be visiting UNC next week and I can’t wait to see it in person. :)</p>

<p>Everything looks really good, but if there’s anything to bring you down, it’s the unweighted GPA. If your essays and rec’s are solid, I think you’ll get in. Good luck! :D</p>

<p>Make sure your essays are great–I think you’re in though. Very impressive SAT, congratulations!</p>

<p>My son is a UNC student (OOS). Based on your numbers, i think you have an excellent chance of getting in to UNC. Good luck and have fun on your visit. Chapel Hill is a beautiful place to be and the people are the nicest that i have come across. My son loves it there.</p>
