Do I have a chance?

I live in Minneapolis, Minnesota and have a 3.8 GPA and received a 26 on my act. The act score will probably go up one or two points as I have only taken the ACT once. What are my chances of getting into the University of Washington. My extra-curricular activities are limited as I play varsity soccer and club soccer which is about it. My high school is ranked the number one public high school in Minnesota.

ACT is a little low. If you can get it up to about a 29 or 30, then you should be good. Your extra-curriculars are low… start doing volunteer work during the summer this year. Like a lot of it. You should get at least like 150 hours of service. A lot of applicants have around 500 service hours or even up to 2,000. Make sure your personal statement is good also.

UW has limited financial aid for OOS students. Can you afford it?

I agree with post #1, as long as that is an unweighted GPA.
