Anxiously awaiting to hear about my son:
Out of state, but would be 4th generation to attend UM
Attended Interlochen Arts Camp 6 years
Main EC: Piano, Competitive Chess Player (since grade 3), LAX Varsity Letterman (3 years), Volunteer on overseas medical missions for 4 years
Honors: NHS, Chosen for Economics For Leaders (UT,Ausin), HOBY Leasership, AP Diploma With Distinction
ACT: Composite 32 (Best M 35, Sci 35, reading, 34, Eng- 33)
GPA: Unweighted 3.8, Weighted 4.25
Will graduate with 9 AP classes, HS is public, but ranked #1 in our state.
Applying to Engineering
Thoughts?
I think he is in. He’s only a bit below (or maybe at or above when recacluated) the average and legacy means a lot to Michigan - 4th generation is really impressive (great-grandfather/mother!) ACT Math score is very strong, and his Michigan GPA is probably 4.0 if he has lots of A- grades. Good luck on his decision this weekend.
