Should I reply Early Action to this school? PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!

<p>I love University of Colorado Boulder and I want to go there. And I want to apply Early Action. The only problem is I had unfavorable junior grades (mostly C pluses) and as a result I have an unfavorable GPA. This semester I have all A's in my courses and my guidance counsler did some math on her computer and said if I keep it up I'll have a 3.7 GPA and be in the top 10% of my class. I was going to send Colorado all this new information in January when I apply. But now I want to apply Early Action and I'm concerned that I'll get straight up rejected and not even be able to re-apply during regular decision with my updated information.</p>

<p>So can you look at my stats as of now and see if applying Early Action is a risk I can afford to take or should I just wait?</p>

<p>You could apply early action and let them know that your senior grades should be raising significantly. If they don’t accept you because of your GPA EA, they might give you a tentative acceptance pending your senior grades. I think it’s worth it to apply EA, especially since EA shows your interest in the school.</p>
