Out of state student. GPA: 3.77 with higher level classes including 3 IB classes and the rest honors. Sat:1690 not super scored. CR:640 Math:440 Writing:610. I know these are all below average but I am hoping my very strong extra curriculars make up for it. Among them are involvement in two sports all four years of high school, and lots of volunteer and community service/clubs in the field I am interested in (environmental science). I have done a leadership program for three years and last summer was in an STEM summer program that will definitely stand out. Essays are ok I think. Just visited last week and really hoping for the best. Please help thank you.
Have you calculated your UC GPA? OOS applicants only get the extra honors points in the calculation for AP/IB or DE courses taken 10-11th grade. Do you also have your 1 year of VPA (Visual/performing arts) class?
Also, the fees for OOS are really expensive and there is no financial aid for OOS.
