CU Boulder has been my dream school ever since I visited last summer and I hope I have at least a chance. I think if one thing is holding me back, it’s my GPA.
I’ll give you my stats:

Applying EA

GPA UW: 3.0
GPA W: 3.1
Freshman year around 2.7
Sophomore year around 2.7
Junior year around 3.3
Senior year (Q1) 3.65
I know it’s below average for CU, but at least it’s upward trend :neutral:

SAT: 1230
670 Verbal
560 Math

I just took the October test today, hopefully my score is in the high 12’s-low 13’s

Some very strong ec’s, I won’t list them all but here are the main ones

Varsity Diving 9-12
Varsity Swimming 9-12
Science Club 9-12
Sustainability Campaign 11-12
Community Service 9-12
Member of the US National Cup Stacking Team (no, not making this up)

Applying to the College of Arts and Sciences with a major in Psychology.

Be brutal. I don’t want to get my hopes up too quickly.

I like your chances.

I’d recommend applying as soon as possible, because it’s generally believed to help your chances.
