Ummm. Yes. Like absolutely yes. Go for it. I can’t even believe you asked lol.

Your GPA and ECs are great, but you will need to improve your standardized test scores to assure admission. Good luck!

Study hard for SAT and ACT. not bad, but you’ll feel better by bumping it up a couple points. I’m in the same position as you!!

Definitely raise your SAT/ACT scores. I think you will get it regardless but you always want to be safe.

Your ACT scores are within the middle 50% of those accepted, but on the lower half according to The CollegeBoard. You’ll be accepted definitely though, as in-state students have both a higher overall acceptance rate (66% 2014) and lower requirements needed to be accepted.
