oh forgot test scores. on my PSAT i got a 1220/1660 (590 in math, 630 in english) and on an ACT practice test i got a 29.

I think you have a chance for SAS but I don’t really know about COE because it is more competitive. Be careful about your GPA, try to keep it above a 3.5.

3.5 weighted gpa and high 1800s sat got my friend accepted SAS, but wait listed COE (eventually accepted). If you dont get into engineering try transfering in. With an sat of 2000+/1350+ you can get into engineering.
