<p>Next year I'm going on the engineering team and science bowl, because you have to be enrolled in or have taken physics to be on them (dumb). Probably a service organization too.</p>
<p>I'm at my first camp right now and we're gonna freeze stuff with liquid nitrogen in a bit :O!!!</p>
<p>bump, and my 100th post!</p>
<p>b u m p i n g</p>
<p>bump...again...</p>
<p>free sex for the next person to chance me</p>
<p>i'm not ugly i promise</p>
<p>sigh.......</p>
<p>need chances pleeeeease</p>
<p>That is correct that Ivies do not give scholarships. How can they, with the caliber of students that attend? What would make one student more deserving of a scholarship than another? Ivies are made affordable by need-based aid. If your family makes over $100,000 per year, you won't get very much aid from Cornell, if any at all. However, if your family makes less than $50,000 per year, it could be almost free to attend Cornell. I'm not familiar with Cornell's financial aid, but at other Ivies you would not have to pay much at all.</p>
<p>i agree with mpl161991; although carnegie melon, rice, and cornell will be reaches considering your stats.. essays can change it completely around though :)</p>
<p>check my post, it might give you some more college ideas: <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/513033-please-chance-me-ivys-uk-schools-updated.html%5B/url%5D">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/513033-please-chance-me-ivys-uk-schools-updated.html</a></p>
<p>although UCs are pretty tough if you are out of state...</p>
<p>So are all of those besides the ones swoop mentioned matches for me?</p>
<p>did you take the nse as a bilingual or not? and what level?</p>
<p>I wouldnt say matches but your "chances" are extremely high :)</p>
<p>I'm guessing CIT for Carnegie (enginering?)</p>
<p>I'd say what the others have said, Rice/CMU/Cornell being iffy. Just apply and good luck!</p>
<p>EX200855 I took it as "outside experience", which is between bilingual and regular.</p>
<p>"If you like schools like UF you should definitely check out Michigan. You seem to have the grades and GPA to get in there, though its not a lock."
To be honest I think you are actually a lock at UMichigan. If you want to be an engineer, UMich is highly reputable.</p>
<p>92% in the top 10th of their class at UMich :/. I might still apply though.</p>
<p>Definitely apply. There are kids who were only in the top 50% of my school's graduating class with 3.6 GPAs who went to UMich. That being said, my school is a Newsweek top 10 school.</p>
<p>Well the average ACT at my school is a 24, so it is more competitive than most, but it's not anything like your school.</p>
<p>Does UMich recalculate GPA though? Like on a 10-point scale or something?</p>
<p>I don't think that they recalculate to a 10 pt. scale, but not 100% sure on that.
They might recalculate though.</p>
