<p>How good do you think my chances are at Northwestern (Early Decision) and/or UMich (in-state, Early Action)?</p>

<p>GPA: ~3.7 UW, 4.3 W (most rigorous courseload possible; 8 APs total)
ACT: 32
ECs: Varsity forensics (broadcasting), co-editor of yearbook, tennis, robotics, NHS
community service: lots. ~250 hrs total; president of/founded Haiti relief group at my school (plan to make trip)
work experience: babysitting, lifeguarding, summer engineering internship
essays: good. Haiti (CommonApp), and dual engineering/journalism (for Northwestern) interest; probably about being a female in the world of engineering and the potential of facing discrimination (for U of M)
rec letters: physics, math teachers, and yearbook advisor/forensics coach. good. counselor rec? who knows, she just came to our school this year.
will apply to engineering school (I'm a girl - potential hook there?)</p>

<p>with those EC’s I dont see any reason why you wouldnt get into either school. Your stats are in the range… maybe a bit on the low side, but your EC’s will def make up for it.</p>

<p>Chance back?!</p>

<p>You’re in at University of Michigan. Northwestern ED is a possibility, but I can’t guarantee anything. They get more selective every year (which worries me).</p>

<p>I know! Actually, U of M has been deferring a ton of in-state people this year. This kid had a 34 ACT and decent everything else, and got deferred…</p>

<p>can’t really see you having any trouble getting into northwester, with there tuition rates there are usually less people who apply there than to U of I (illinois resident myself) which has much cheaper tuition rates than northwestern. best of luck!</p>

<p>I definitely think you have great chances at UMichigan. Great GPA and good ACT, and decent ECs. Northwestern is a tiny reach, but definitely still attainable!
Keep up the good work and best of luck to you!
thanks for chancing me!</p>
