Colleges and Universities A-Z North Carolina State University

<p>Hi! I'm a student from Maryland.
NC state has an extremely high acceptance rate for students for my school.
I know I can get in because its not fairly hard to get into in general, but for those of you who are familiar with the school (since i know NOTHING), could you tell me my chances of getting in? You can never be too sure</p>

<p>GPA : 3.3 UW and 3.9 W
ACT : 29 (taking another in october)</p>

<p>my extracirriculars are good but too much t to post here. i'm very involved in my school and outside community</p>

<p>i wrote all the optional written statements on the application as well.</p>

<p>so if anyone has any input, or has heard anything about the school relating to school spirit, social life, campus feel, etc please comment!!!
thank you :)</p>

<p>google the common data set for NCState and compare yourself to admitted students in section C. You can guage your own chances.</p>

<p>Camp out on their fin aid webpages and see what they have. Schools like NCState won’t focus much on your ECs. </p>

<p>Run the Net Price Calculator on their web site. As an out-of-state student I don’t think you’ll get much aid.</p>

<p>Out of state plus unexceptional GPA ≠ merit scholarships.</p>

<p>They’d have merit $ for outstanding OOS students.</p>

<p>NC State does not give much scholarship aid to OOS (merit or need based). Most state schools are like that with the exception of those that promise to meet all demonstrated financial need. </p>
