<p>I was just hoping to get an idea of my chances at UNC, and comments will be appreciated! And I am an out of state student, by the way.</p>

-Member of the Louisiana Legislative Youth Advisory Council.
-On Mayor's Youth Advisory Council in my city. Treasurer Junior year and Senior Adviser
Senior year.
-3 years of work at a cafe. I'm a Junior manager, and I am assistant director of marketing.

-Student director of fundraising at my school
-4 years Student Council member. Treasurer Junior year, and VP Senior year.
-3 years of Beta Club. President Senior year.
-4 years volunteering at my church. A total of approximately 200 hours.
There are a couple other things I could write about, but the Common App limits me to 10 activities, and these are probably my stronger activities.</p>

<p>My essay will not be the best essay. I'm a fairly good writer, but I'm by no means the best.</p>

<p>Letters of recommendation will speak very highly of me.</p>

<p>Thank you!!</p>

<p>UNC-CH: Reach (you may as well apply at Duke and still stand a chance)</p>

<p>Can you afford Tulane EA?</p>

<p>The only problem with Duke and Tulane is that their financial aid program is not what I need. So, even if I were to get in, I wouldn’t be able to attend. </p>

<p>You think it’s a reach for UNC-CH? What about my application do you think is weak?</p>

4

<p>It’s not that your application has any significant weakness. It’s that UNC-CH has only so few spots for out-of-staters (~18%). Hence UNC-CH being almost as hard to get into as Duke.</p>

<p>I know that UNC-CH is extremely competitive for OOS students, I was just hoping that I would be able to rank fairly high among those students. "/</p>

<p>Do you have any idea what my chances would be at U Virginia?</p>
