<p>UWI: Reach</p>

<p>Low reach… I know people that got in last year with a 24. Good luck!</p>

<p>Chance back: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=1555080[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=1555080&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>It is a reach for you. And with only 2 years of Foreign Language, it does hurt you a lot unless you are native to another language. See below:</p>

<p>Probably want to raise your ACT scores.
At very minimum you should be 25 percentile.

<p>Reach, sorry.</p>

<p>This is the latest CDS.

<p>Enrolled freshmen: 26-30 mid 50% ACT. 24.3% had UW GPA below 3.75.</p>

<p>You are in bottom quartile for both statistics. Also these are enrolled stats, not admits. Admits have higher stats since kids admitted with higher stats tend to use UW as safety then enroll elsewhere. Admitted stats can guess are about 27-31 mid 50%, and 3.8 for bottom quartile GPA.</p>

<p>Your ECs look fine.</p>

<p>Your EC s look fine I think. It is High Match probably.

<p>A little more info…I’m retaking the ACT in December (this time I’m going to a week-long prep class and actually studying). And I volunteered over 50 hours over the summer at the hospital</p>
