<p>I am Hispanic/Latino in a High School, from Central NJ, with over 75% of the students being white or asian. My High School is ranked within the top 200 public High Schools in the US and is very well known by most colleges. </p>

<p>What are my chances to get into the Clark School of Engineering at UMDCP? I'm not sure what specific degree but I know I want to do engineering.</p>

<p>I’ll chance anyone who replies to this</p>

<p>Ok I think if you can get your ACT to a 29 or 30 then you have a good shot of getting in. Do you have a good upward trend? Whats your unweighted?? Maryland has a (relatively) small population of hispanics and I think they would like a hispanic engineer. Wish you the best of luck!!</p>

<p>Chance me??</p>

<p>University of Maryland has gone up in standards recently. It’s now harder to get in. With your scores and such, I think you have a good chance getting in. The application is the same for the Engineering school, so you’re fine.</p>

<p>My unweighted GPA is 3.57. My weighted GPA freshman year was 3.84, sophomore year was 4.05, and junior year was 3.95. Also if you superscore my ACT I have a 29.</p>

<p>please chance me, ill chance you back</p>

<p>being hispanic helps, but your SAT is pretty low for cp, I would recommend taking it again. Also, cp doesn’t look at SAT II’s, even if you get all 800’s they don’t care. Your GPA and ec’s are good, but try to take the SAT one more time to boost your chances.</p>

<p>with your current SAT score, I would give you a 55% chance</p>

<p>Submit the ACT and I think your fine. And can you chance me?? I posted my threads earlier.</p>

<p>@coola426 I just chanced both of urs</p>

<p>@rocksupper My ACT is better than my SAT so I dont really care about my SAT right now. Im taking the ACT one more time in september to try and score a 30+. If I get 30+ what are my chances?</p>

<p>bumpppppppppppp</p>

Please do!</p>

<p>Also I do believe you have a chance, but your SAT scores could use some work. That’s all I see wrong really. (=</p>

<p>Bumpppppppppp</p>

<p>bump for umd college park chances</p>

<p>You’ll probably need a 31-32 on the ACT. Your essays and recommendations are also some important factors that UMD considers so make sure that they are really good. You might also want to consider applying early action.</p>

<p>That^ is an absolutely ridiculous score for UMDCP. UMDCP will most likely take a URM OOS applicant at about a 1850/27-28 score. Your GPA is fine. Personally, with your current ACT score, I would be shocked if you got denied</p>

<p>thanks divy1234 that makes me feel a lot better haha</p>

<p>bumppppppppppppp</p>

<p>bump for college park chance</p>

<p>bump chance me plz</p>

<p>Seems like a decent match in my eyes. A 28 on your ACT should be just fine.</p>
