Chances of Admission?

<p>Hello, what do you guys think my chances are at Ohio State (Main Campus)?</p>

<ul>
<li>White</li>
<li>In-State</li>
<li>3.76 Weighted GPA</li>
<li>26 ACT</li>
<li>3 AP Classes in High School</li>
<li>3 Honors Classes in High School</li>
<li>100 Hour Internship Involved with Business</li>
<li>Tons of Community Service</li>
<li>Taken a Few Clubs with the School</li>
<li>Other Various Activities</li>
<li>Class Does Not Rank</li>
</ul>

<p>Thanks! Just applied. What do you think?</p>

<p>Deferred would be my guess. The two most important things are ACT/SAT and class rank. Your ACT is on the weak side, and your high school doesn’t rank to counter it.</p>

<p>Ultimately, with any deferred applicant, too many variables are in play as to guess what the final decision might be. With each passing year there are more and more 26-27 ACT students denied. OTOH, there still are quite a few accepted, so definitely apply. Just be realistic and have a safety school. If you’re in-state, that 26 ACT will get you a little bit of merit aid at Miami and a lot of merit aid at OU, so you should think about applying to one of those also.</p>

<p>50% of OSU’s admits don’t break 27 on the ACT. I’m sure you’ll be fine.</p>

<p>Any more opinions for the stats stated here?</p>

<ul>
<li>3.64 Unweighted GPA</li>
<li>3.76 Weighted GPA</li>
<li>26 Composite ACT</li>
<li>White</li>
<li>In-State</li>
<li>3 AP Classes</li>
<li>3 Honors Classes</li>
<li>Over 150 Hours of Community Service</li>
<li>100 Hour Internship</li>
<li>Major Undecided</li>
<li>Taken 4 School Clubs Throughout High School</li>
<li>Various Other Activities </li>
<li>Both Parents went and graduated from OSU</li>
<li>1 Teacher Recommendation, 1 Counselor Recommendation</li>
</ul>

<p>Thanks! Let me know if you have any other questions.</p>

<p>Any other opinions?</p>

<p>Your act is kinda low but you have incredible extracurriculars. To be honest I think you’ll get in. Another thing going for you is the rigor of your courses which should help. Are you from ohio?</p>

<p>Yes in-state.</p>

<p>Id say you’re in easily and the fact that both your parents are graduates from OSU i think will help you</p>

<p>Just following up on MarcusOSU’s post–I saw on the OSU website that the ACT interquartile range for the incoming class was 27-31. That would mean that < 25% of admits didn’t break 27.</p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>
