Chances for oxford and sc

<p>no not oxford in england. and not south carolina. (sorry steve spurrier) I'm applying ED to oxford of emory, and southern cal is reg. if you could chance me for wisconsin and illinois too, that'd be dandy. </p>

<p>p.s. just for kicks and giggles, can you guys use the illinois gpa posted above to chance me for vandy. thanks</p>

<p>oh! now i remember which one i wanted. sorry i put vandy as a cover for a school i forgot. my georgia tech recalc. gpa is a 3.47, so can i get a chance for georgia tech too? oos- California</p>

<p>My friend got into Oxford of Emory with a 3.2 and a 1900 SAT which isn't too different from your scores. The thing is though, Oxford is getting a lot more public attention. More public attention = more applicants = harder to get into. </p>

<p>Best of luck however, I live in GA so I know a good amount about Oxford/Emory.</p>

<p>I say in hopefully because my stats are a little bit worse than yours lol. I think being a URM will help. By the way, it's early action, not early decision.</p>

<p>Oops I didn't realize that you had a more recent chance me thread up, my bad</p>
