<p>looking at whitman, maybe some canadian schools?, university of washington, university of rochester, still a bit lost on what my matches are...I'm a bit worried about applying to state schools because I definitely need scholarships to attend..
dream school is university of michigan (ann arbor)
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated</p>
<p>You have a chance at Michigan, although it would help if you were a male entering pharmacy compared to a female. What is your Michigan GPA? Do you know how to calculate it? Which school in A2 do you go to? Huron, Pioneer, Community, Greenhills? Extracurriculars look good, although i'd want to know # of AP/AC courses.</p>
<p>sorry about that, that's not really my location. i'm actually out of state. </p>

<p>It's a bit of a reach OOS with that UM GPA. They typically want to see above a 3.7, and a little higher for OOSers. Your test scores will help though, as well as your class rank and AP classes. Don't count on an acceptance, it's 50-50 for someone with your credentials. Make sure you have some safeties, especially ones that you can afford. I missed the "I wish" under the location, my mistake. I think Rochester is a good match and Washington is a safety.</p>
<p>Carnegie Mellon is about as difficult as Michigan (maybe a bit easier), Chicago a bit harder, and Illinois easier. You'd likely be in at Illinois, the rest being in that match/reach category. I should note that none of those schools are like each other at all. CMU is artsy, Chicago is a liberal arts education, and Illinois is Big 10.</p>
