CHANCE ME PLEASE

<p>I am a Mongolian-American female in my senior year of high school in Colorado. </p>

<p>My GPA is a little on the low side: 3.3 unweighted and 3.75 weighted, however I'm in the top 15% of my class.
My highest ACT is a 26, but 28 with writing.
By the time I graduate, I will have taken 6 Honors courses, 8 AP courses, and 6 dual/concurrent enrollment courses.
I've also been in AVID since 6th grade until now.</p>

<p>My extracurriculars include:
Student Council (9,10,12) - President this year
Pre-Medical Club (10-12) - Historian/Public Affairs Officer last year
Future Business Leaders of America (10-12) - placed at Districts and moved on to State competition in Vail, CO
Institute of Science and Technology Scholars (10-12) - Health Sciences Pathway
Poms (10,12) - JV in 10th grade and Hip Hop Dance Team that competes in State Competition this year
Pre-collegiate Health Careers Program at Anschutz Medical Campus (10-12) - completed a 5-week program over the summer where I took classes in Anatomy, Calculus, Dentistry, English Composition, and Health Disparities, I was the Student Council President of the summer program and gave a speech at the Closing Ceremony.
Yearbook (11) - received 1st place CHSPA award for a page I wrote for.</p>

<p>Other honors/awards:
Junior Escort at last year's Graduation
Won 1st Place in the Winter Art Show at school last year
Received an AP Scholar award for getting 3 or higher on 3 or more AP tests
Honor roll: 9th, 11th, and will most likely will again this year</p>

<p>Community service:
I have almost 300 hours for volunteering at my little sister's Mongolian School.
I volunteer twice a year at the Children's Hospital with the Pre-Med Club at my school and make arts and crafts with the patients.
I started a fundraising event with a couple friends for a few Aurora Theater shooting victims - included a dunk tank, car wash, live DJ, water slide food; raised over $1000.
I also have been tutoring freshmen AVID students at my school in all subjects since the beginning of this school year.</p>

<p>I hope to either become a biomedical engineer and work with cellular, tissue, and genetic engineering, or use my biology degree and continue on to dentistry school to become an orthodontist.</p>

<p>What are my chances of getting into these schools?</p>

<p>St. Johns University - Queens, major in Clinical Laboratory Sciences
NYU-Poly, major in Biomolecular Engineering
University of Denver, applied undecided but probably major in Molecular Biology
UC-San Diego, major in Bioengineering
UC-Santa Barbara, major in Biochemistry - Molecular Biology
UC-Santa Cruz, major in Biomolecular Engineering
Fordham University, major in Biology
CSU-Long Beach, major in Bioengineering
Cal Poly-Pomona, major in Biotechnology
University of Tampa, major in Pre-Dental
University of San Francisco, major in Biology</p>

<p>Also, do you have suggestions of any schools I would have a good chance of getting into based on my academic record, extracurriculars, volunteering, and career plans?</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>You need to calculate your UC/CSU GPA: <a href=“GPA Calculator for the University of California – RogerHub”>http://rogerhub.com/gpa-calculator-uc/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Your test scores and GPA are low for some of the schools on your list. I will chance for your for the California schools.
Are you able to pay full fees for these schools, since OOS students receive little to no financial aid?</p>

<p>UCSD: Reach
UCSB: Low Reach
UCSC: High Match
USF/CSULB: High Match
CPP: Match</p>

<p>My UC/CSU GPA is a 3.4
I need financial aid, but I am applying to numerous scholarships of various amounts including Daniel’s Fund, Gates, and a lot of smaller ones.
Thanks!</p>
