Chances for UNC, UVA, Elon?

<p>I am a junior and recently took the SATs which I scored well on, but my GPA isn't the highest. Also a New England resident.</p>

<p>SAT-
Reading: 800
Writing: 800
Math: 640</p>

<p>GPA-3.0</p>

<p>I am on two varsity sports, participate in two clubs, have won multiple national writing awards, have been on a service trip to Fiji and have the President's Volunteer Service Award, Gold.</p>

<p>Do I have any chance of getting into UNC (Chapel Hill), UVA, and/or Elon?? Thanks!</p>

<p>Chapel Hill is extremely dicey-- they’ve got very high standards, plus a quota system that ensures every freshman class is at least 82% in-state. Virginia doesn’t have the quota, but they’re just as selective. Elon should be a bit easier.</p>

<p>However, you have an outstanding SAT score that will give you a chance just about anywhere and your EC’s are quite good. Have you taken the ACT yet? I imagine you’d score highly on it, which would give you a push.</p>

<p>Let’s see…
UNC: Reach
UVA: Low reach
Elon: Target</p>

<p>What’s your intended major? That could play a significant part.</p>

<p>(Chance back! <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1118399-chance-theatre-acting-inclined-junior-ill-chance-you-back.html#post12333784[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1118399-chance-theatre-acting-inclined-junior-ill-chance-you-back.html#post12333784&lt;/a&gt;)</p>

<p>Maybe Rhodes (TN) and Denison (OH) also. Best of luck!</p>

<p>I can only talk about UVA.</p>

<p>I think your perfect verbal scores and weak math just show your tendency towards majoring in social sciences instead of say science/engineering, and they are fine with that. + Still, please take SAT 2s. Maybe you can score better at SAT 2 Math Level 1 AND 2? and you can prove your expertise in English with SAT 2s :)</p>

<p>Unfortunately, you should be seriously concerned about your GPA.</p>
