<p>I'm a senior in the top 10% of my high school class. I've taken the most challenging courses, and have scored a 3 or 4 on five different AP exams. My ACT composite is a 33, and my weighted GPA is a 3.854. I'm not sure of my unweighted, but it's probably around a low 3.7. I'm on the national honor society, relay for life, but only have around 30 volunteer hours. I've also been on the track and cross country teams, and since summer have worked a co-op job at Dow Corning 20+hours a week. I also dual enroll at a local community college (calculus II this semester, calculus III next semester). After dual enrollment and AP credits are considered, I'll have 27 college credits upon high school graduation. I live in Michigan.</p>
<p>I guess I just don't know where to go from here. I'm going into nuclear engineering, and my father is leaning me towards going for a cheaper college the first two years to get the "basics" done. My family contribution is $10,000 total, not much of a dent at UofM...so merit based aid is crucial.</p>
<p>My questions are, what are my chances for admission at the University of Michigan CoE, and what are my chances/what should I be doing for merit based aid?</p>
