Can someone please rate my chances for getting into UCF summer term? I’ve seen reports of statistics much better than mine being denied and it’s begun to worry me. I also had an okay freshmen/sophomore year which really put me behind where I should currently be.
Term applying for: Summer 2016
In state or out of state?: In state
GPA W: 4.3
GPA UW: 3.5
SAT: 1500 overall
ACT: 23–Retaking both tests soon, because they’re terrible scores, clearly.
Strength of classes: 11 AP, rest of the classes honors.
Community Service: 580 hours
EC: Psychology club, premed, homeless assistance, volleyball.
Will be submitting an essay and letters of recommendations
@alex7878 here is the mid-50% range from the admissions website:
How competitive is UCF?
For freshmen, the mid-range (middle 50%) of our Fall 2015 entering class was:
GPA : 3.7 – 4.3 (recalculated academic core)
SAT : 1190 – 1310 (critical reading and math)
SAT : 1760 – 1940 (critical reading, math, and writing)
ACT : 25 – 29 (composite)
Also, page 11 of the Common Data Set contains some good detail and you’ll see that students have been admitted with low test scores have been admitted, although they are not the majority of students:

You should retake your tests because you seem to be right at a cut-off point there. But your recalculated GPA should be pretty good with all those AP’s, don’t you think?
Good luck!
