rejected from UNC, get in where now?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I applied UNC-CH early out of state and got rejected, so now I am nervous bout my chances. I applied to UVA, College of William and Mary, and Virginia Tech all in-state. I also applied Boston College, Cornell, Johns Hopkins, and Wake Forest. I always submitted as a bio major or hist of science major, if that makes a diff. My essays for unc were trash (which is prob why I didn?t get in), but for everyone else they are pretty good (not boring). My recommends are strong-2 or 3 for each school. </p>

<p>Do you think ill get in anywhere? Important ones to me are UVA and Johns Hopkins (tho its too expensive)</p>

<p>Thanks!
