<p>What are my chances at University of Maryland- college park and University of Michigan?</p>
<p>SAT I: 1330/2070 (670M 660 CR 740 W)
GPA:3.23 UW (UMich GPA is 3.25)
6 AP's so far (AP US History, AP Lit and comp, AP lang and comp, AP Southern Lit, AP Calc AB, AP enviro sci)
I go to a small private school in washington, dc, and I am white. I have lots of community service hrs, and I played V baseball. 2 of my sisters went to UMich, and my brother is enrolled there now. I am not asking for any financial aid at either place. I have already sent out my application to UMich.
Do I have a shot at Maryland Scholars or Honors?
Thanks</p>
<p>Well, 65% of University of Maryland students have a high school GPA of at least 3.75, so I'd think it would probably be a reach for you. I'm having the same problem. If you live in Maryland you might have a better chance, since I've heard it's hard out of state. Your SAT scores are within the range, but unfortunately they don't seen to consider writing.</p>
<p>University of Michigan: You stand a pretty good shot. You're right in the median SAT I range (CR is 590 - 690 and Math is 630 - 730, with only 53% of applicants reporting scores). They also look for a challenging course load, which you certainly have, and they look for a "B" average. If your GPA is weighted, you seem to fit that too.</p>
<p>U of Maryland: Again, most of their applicants have a 3.75 or higher. I'd say you have a 50/50 shot of getting in, but you'll have to really wow them with other parts of your application package (ie, your essay, interview, etc). It is a lot harder out of state because a certain percentage (I believe 45%) of their students have to be MD residents.</p>
<p>Do you also have safeties? I strongly advise against only applying to these 2.</p>
