<p>thank you so much in advance</p>

<p>university of michigan: Safety, in. Though your ACT would make it a match for OOS, since you're in state with a strong GPA, you're in. Possible minor scholarship money, but not a full-ride. </p>

<p>northwestern university: Possible - are you applying to the journalism school? If so, it's a reach. Be sure to poise yourself as unique and driven for journalism, since your stats for journalism applicants (not NW applicants in general) are on par or a little lower than average (the ACT mainly). </p>

<p>michigan state university: Safety, likely half-tutition scholarship to full-tutition scholarship. </p>

<p>Chance me? <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/523346-alabama-new-york-city-chance-new-senior-2.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/523346-alabama-new-york-city-chance-new-senior-2.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>UMichigan- You will definitely make it in, but I doubt they will give you much money. You might make it into the Honors college, but your ACT and GPA are a little on the low end for honors college</p>

<p>Northwestern- Low Reach. I agree that Journalism is harder to get into, but if you are applying for anything else I would imagine you are in</p>

<p>MSU- Enormous safety. They will give you $$ and put you in the Honors College, and they might even give you a research position there. If they do, and you are rejected at Northwestern and UMichigan won't let you into the Honors College, I would go to MSU.</p>

<p>hey thanks for the replies! </p>

<p>so i got a 32 on my ACT =D without the writing portion. would that change my chances at all?</p>
