<p>Ga Tech is not my first choice but I will be applying early and it is a school I'd like to get into and I would need financial aid. </p>

<p>I am co founder and president of my school chess club, the 1st place HOSA winner for my reigon in nutrition, i have an employment history as an umpire at a local baseball park and I worked as a medical assistant at a nephrology office in Ft. Lauderdale in Summer of 2011 + some M.D recommendation letters. </p>

<p>I'm an active musican and music club member as well as a musical engineer ( i design and build synthesizers with a friend of mine) I am a Certified Solidworks associate (despite having never taken an engineering class) and I'm an active writer of poetry and prose working on a book contract. </p>

<p>I think i have enough extra curricular bonuses, I'm just a bit worried about my unweighted GPA being too low, but my schedule strength is high given that I go to a magnet school and I've taken as many AP classes as I am allowed. </p>

<p>what are my chances at admission and financial aid? </p>

<p>Thanks in advance</p>

<p>From what I’ve read they don’t give much financial aid to OOS students.</p>

3

<p>does that mean that admission is harder for OOS students as well?</p>

<p>Admission tends to be slightly more difficult for OOS/Int students, from what I have observed.</p>

<p>Their current student body is 55%-60% IS. I can’t remember exactly but its somewhere around that.</p>
