<p>You need to ask your parents what your family can afford for college. You are most likely a CA resident. UMich (for example) will cost your family $50K/year. Are they willing to pay that?</p>

4

<p>If the University Of Michigan, costs which is 50 k a year is a problem, make sure you apply to the cheaper elite publics such as University of Wisconsin- Madison, University of Washington- Seattle, etc. University of Michigan isn’t worth 10 k a more then those schools.</p>

5

<p>Berkeley admission is rather unlikely with a UC admissions GPA of 3.58.</p>

6

<p>“University of Michigan isn’t worth 10 k a more then those schools.”</p>

<p>Honestly with your GPA, Michigan a large reach. Try Wisconsin.</p>

7

<p>Not true. My weighted GPA was lower and I got admitted to the University of Michigan</p>

8

<p>It’s the UW GPA that is the concern.</p>

<p>Yeah I know what you mean… Hopefully I can raise it Junior and Senior year by working as hard as I can…</p>
