<p>Unlikely since UMich considers unweighted GPA the most (also they don’t superscore btw).</p>

<p>Note: I like the “Spartan” in your username :P</p>

<p>Your GPA is pretty close to the average 3.75/3.8 that UM admits. Good ACT score. </p>

<p>Do you have any leadership roles/positions?</p>

<p>^ No it’s not. The 3.75/3.8 average is unweighted. You have a slim chance.</p>

<p>You have a good chance I think, I got in with far less then what you have.</p>

<p>Your chances are very slim.</p>

<p>Only 7% of the entering class of 2011 had an UW HS GPA below a 3.5. Admissions for the class of 2013 is expected to be significantly more selective that it was in 2011. Being out of state doesn’t help much either. The upward trend is good, but it doesn’t seem like it is good enough for them to ignore your low GPA. Everything else seems around average (or just slightly above) and probably wont help you out that much. </p>

<p>Admission isn’t impossible, I’ve seen it happen before. Just don’t get your hopes up.</p>

<p>spartan0908, did you check your school’s Naviance? As KronOmega points out, only a tiny percentage of applicants with sub-3.5 unweighed GPAs are admitted into Michigan. However, some schools are known for having very conservative grading policies and 3.3 GPAs students from those schools generally get into selective universities. You need to check with your school’s Naviance, and if you don’t have it, just ask your counselor how students with your grades and scores have done in the past two years.</p>
