Chances at University of Arizona

<p>Looking into pharmacy, but I applied as undecided yesterday. Note: I am a currently a resident of Michigan.</p>

<ul>
<li>GPA - 3.3 </li>
<li>ACT - 30</li>
<li>Top half of class (barely under top third)</li>
<li>Senior year coursework: AP World History, Pre-Calculus, Engineering Drafting, AP Environmental Science, World Lit (Eng) 12, Spanish 2</li>
<li>Varsity tennis, quizbowl, marching band</li>
<li>Working from 07/10-present</li>
</ul>

<p>Target, reach, safety?</p>

<p>you’re definitely in. safety.</p>

<p>safety…</p>

<p>Easily safety.</p>

<p>You’re easily in. </p>

<p>However, it’s not a safety unless you’re certain that you can afford the school. Do you know what kind of merit scholarships you’ll get? Is cost a concern?</p>

<p>Where else have you applied?</p>

<p>Is that your WEIGHTED GPA that is on your transcript??</p>

<p>Money is somewhat of an issue for me, but the education comes first. I have been accepted to Eastern Michigan University, Grand Valley State University, University of Michigan - Dearborn, and Ferris State University. I am currently awaiting my response from Ohio State University and University of Arizona, and I am considering applying to Akron. I made the bonehead mistake of applying to Michigan State for engineering, and as a result they want seventh semester grades before they will accept me (my friend with the exact same GPA and a 25 ACT was accepted because he applied for liberal arts). And no, this is my unweighted GPA. First quarter was solid As, second is looking the same. If I maintain solid As through the remainder of the school year, my weighted GPA will be just shy of a 3.6.</p>

<p>Well the thing is with Arizona, they base scholarships off of SAT/ACT scores, so that 30 ACT will get you a good amount of money (I got an 1810 SAT, and got $6,000/yr)</p>

<p>I had absolutely no idea it was 40k a year for out of state tuition. That’s just crazy…</p>
