Should I even bother applying to UF Honors with my stats?

I got admitted to the fall 2017 semester and I’m considering applying to UF honors but I don’t want to get my hopes too high… My stats:
Unweighted GPA: 3.9
Weighted GPA: 4.85 (when I first applied to UF therefore the score that they will be looking at)
------------------5.04 (currently)
ACT: 31 Composite
I’m also in the IB program taking 4 HL’s

I know that the real importance are the essay questions… So if I write some killer essays do I still have a chance of getting into the honors? thank you! :smiley:

They waived the grade requirements, so yes, you have a chance and should apply if interested in the program.

Good Luck!
