<p>your act is definitely a plus (esp. for honors consideration) but it seems incongruent to your gpa. they may question that, but nonetheless your chances seem good.</p>
<p>Apply early and your chances will be better. Look at the posts from last year-some with better stats did not get in and it seemed the reason was that they applied later. When we were at orientation they talked about how they were building a new building for Carlson so that they could increase enrollment. Not sure if that will be in effect for 2008 or 2009. Just get that app in ASAP to give yourself the best shot. Good luck :)</p>
