Hello! I’m going to be applying to UMD specifically for the ACES program and I was wondering if anyone could provide any insights on my chances of getting into it and/or the typical accepted student profile.
My cumulative GPA is a 3.78 (weighted). My ACT composite is a 32. I’ve taken every computer science course my school offers. I go to a college prep school in Ohio, and I’ve taken 10 total AP and honors courses over my high school years, which meets my school’s definition of most rigorous curriculum. I’ve been programming since I was 9, and have worked in a lab at NASA for the past three years. I write for a million reader computing website about my work at NASA and my FIRST robotics team. Myself and several other girls started our school’s first programming competition. I also fence, and foster kittens for the humane society.
This is my first time on the chances forum, so if you need to know any other info, ask away! Thank you!!!
