<p>Alright, I read other chance threadss and I already know what your going to say; really low, due to how I am not in the top 10% and also OOS (which makes it more difficuklt due to the 10% maxiumum for OOC+International). However, what if I first go to ACC (or nowhere whatsoever) for a year while I attain residency before I apply to UT?</p>

<p>1850 SAT score, 3.7 GPA, weighted lightly. I don't know my ranking but I think I'm somewhere between 10-20%. I'm intelligent but freshman and 1st semester of sophmore year I didn't do so hot due to outside factors. Was the vice president of the Creative Writing Club, but wasn't able to ge reelection for Senior year due to how it basically became an extension of the writing club. </p>

<p>I can probably get a lot of student reccomendation letters; I've been good with plenty of my teachers without becoming a brown-noser. I can also write some special circumstances letters as well; I used to have severe speech problems that has been fixed through years of therapy, I'm half-iranian, and I'm bisexual.</p>

<p>I’m sorry, but you have like a 1% chance of getting accepted.</p>

<p>You have more than 1% chance of getting in. Just raise those SAT scores up to 2000 or so and keep trying to raise your class rank. If you do that, then you’ll have a fair shot at getting accepted. They took twice as many OOS this years so who knows.</p>

<p>If you go to any other college, your HS stats won’t matter, just your grades.</p>

<p>Otherwise, you have a very low chance because your scores are average for in-state admits, and low for OOS admits, and you aren’t in the top ten percent. Sorry.</p>
