Chance?

<p>Hey! I'm a junior living in Florida and I really want to go to FSU, so I was wondering if you guys could chance me!</p>

<p>UW GPA: 3.36
W GPA: 3.93</p>

<p>I have taken all of my core classes as honors, and have taken AP World, AP Psych, and AP Lang. On AP World, I got a 2. I think on AP Psych I got a 3 or 4, and AP Lang a 4 or 5.</p>

<p>ACT: 28
SAT: 1190/1920 (that's with a 530 on math, retook Saturday)</p>

<p>I've been in Key Club through high school (VP soph & junior years and secretary next year)
Juniorettes soph, junior, & next year (going to run for an office position)
Italian Club through high school
Fellowship of Christian Athletes this year & next year
NHS next year</p>

<p>I have 75 recorded community service hours (25 with YMCA, 50 with Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) and other hours with Key Club and Juniorettes that I never recorded...</p>

<p>AND (I think this is what will really help me since my GPA is kinda low) I was chosen to be a Delegate from my state to go to Washington DC and speak on Capitol Hill about funding & finding a cure for type 1 diabetes...it might be on CSPAN!</p>

<p>Remember that they calculate their own GPA, so it probably won’t be low. I would be surprised if you weren’t accepted.</p>

<p>Ignore the FSU part please, I copied & pasted this from my chances topic in the FSU forum…</p>

<p>Thanks Kaleid! I recalculated that GPA with just my core and foreign language classes, adding 1/2 point for honors and 1 point for AP.</p>

<p>No problem. You have very strong stats and you should be proud. :slight_smile:
Let me know if you have any other questions, especially if they’re related to housing.</p>

<p>I toured FSU a few months ago and visited one of the residence halls. I think it was one of the newer ones. I think there was a restaurant downstairs, and there were a lot of mailboxes, and there were laundry rooms. I think there were some classrooms on the first floor, too. There were also a lot of bikeracks on the outside. 1) Do you know what building I’m talking about & if so what is it called? and 2) Do a lot of USF students have bikes?</p>

<p>If you mean at USF, you visited Juniper Poplar. That is where a lot of the Living Learning Communities are housed: Honors, Engineering, Business, etc. Then there’s also a section in that area for regular first-years. It’s a freshman-dominant hall.</p>

<p>I would say a pretty big chunk of the students who live on campus have bikes or longboards.</p>

<p>Lol yes, I meant USF. Thanks. And okay, thank you! Do you have knowledge of the Greek Life at USF?</p>

<p>I do not. Sorry.</p>
