Hello UNC is one of my top choices! I live in NC & I attend a small public magnet school. I applied EA btw (I know the decision comes out in less than a month but I am anxious & impatient, forgive me)
ACT: 31
Unweighted gpa: 3.63 (this is definitely a weakness) weighted: 4.2
I have only taken honors & AP classes with the exception of gym & foreign language because those are only offered as regular classes. I took 2 AP’s sophomore year, 3 Junior year & I am taking 3 this year. (Because my school is small the amount of AP’s offered is limited.)
Extracurriculars/school involvement/community involvement: 250+ service hours, volunteer dance teacher all 4 years, pre-professional ballet dancer dancing 5+ days a week, I have had a part-time job in fast food & I currently have a part-time job, lead engineer of my schools robotics team, founed a club, co-organized a donation drive for affected hurricane victims, vice-pres of spanish club, participated in a selective summer leadership program, volunteer w/ a local breast cancer foundation, choreographed for school plays, & a few minor clubs.
Also I should mention that I’m first gen & an URM. Apologies for the scrambled format of this post. I’m very anxious for decisions to come out so my brain is a little frazzled.
What county do you live in? Acceptance rates for Mecklenburg and Wake are significantly lower than other N.C. counties. Also, are you top 10% in class rank? That is important to them.
My class is so small (40 people) that rank means virtually nothing & I’m in Guilford County
