Without more information, I would have to say that your chances are somewhat lower than the acceptance rate (which is ~30%) given that your ACT is just south of the BC median (32) and your UW GPA seems a bit lower than average (although they don’t disclose average GPA given how variable they are across the country).

THE GOOD NEWS: While you are below the medians, you are still in-range. Share with us the subjective aspects of your profile (and also your ranking, if available, and your course rigor) and we may be able to give you a better idea. More importantly, we may be able to give you some guidance that will enable you to maximize your chances. Good luck! :slight_smile:

Hi @DSAP
BC, like many schools, will initially look at your academic profile, (gpa, sat, act) to determine if you can handle the workload. If your numbers determine you can, then they move on to the more important parts of your application (e.g. the rest of your application) to determine if you’re a match and fit for the incoming class.
