<p>Hey,
Cornell is kinda a reach for me. I got a 29 on the ACTs, a 3.8 unweighted GPA, but a lot of extracurriculars and community service. I am from Arizona, do you think that helps my stats? What do you think my chances are to get in?
Thank you.</p>
<p>your chances are 45.63% percent</p>
<p>why don't you just apply..i'm guessing you'll want atleast 1 reach school. your stats seem fine from another high schooler's view</p>
<p>hey catalina.a GPA of 3.8 UW isn't bad at all. ignore the ACT's and GPA's...admissions goes way beyond that. what college are you applying to?</p>
<p>i'm from arizona too...scottsdale. i go to chaparral high school.</p>
<p>it might help if we're both from arizona..considering how few people actually apply to cornell from here. we'd freeze our ass off if we got in..considering how we consider 70 degree weather to be freezing.</p>
<p>We have similar stats! I also have a 29 ACT and a weighted GPA of a 4.1 (I don't know what it is unweighted) I have a lot of EC's and great recs, I applied Early Decsion to CAS, so I will let you know! I'm thinking I will get deferred...</p>
<p>wow there's more people applying from az than i thought thought, i live in chandler!! im new to CC too although ive been visiting it for awhile. I have similar stats to yall also..i got a 31 on the act..and have a 4.2 weighted gpa. i applied to engineering ED.</p>
<p>Oh sweet. I go to Catalina Foothills in Tucson. I completely agree, we will be freezing. Actually i was cold tonight and it was 63 maybe? Oh well. I'm hoping the Arizona aspect helps us out. But with 25000 applicants, who knows. I am applying to architecture.</p>
<p>YOU ARE???? I AM TOO wow if we both get in that'd be awesome</p>
<p>i remember debating some catalina foothills ppl in tournaments haha.</p>
<p>for you..if you have a good portfolio and show commitment, you'll have a good chance, that is, assuming that you are in good academic standing..i attended cornell summer program so let me know if you have any questions.
and yes..it is freezing tonight</p>
<p>Wow I'm happy that there's people applying from arizona...ive never been to catalina before, never been to tucson..but I used to go to chaparral for track meets all the time!!! one of my friends was going to apply to cornell architecture..im not sure anymore though...New York weather won't bother me though (even though I know I'll be cold)...I really want to get away from the heat, I hate running in it.</p>
<p>one of my friends at chapparal is applying early to cornell too but she's not applying to architecture</p>
<p>why is cornell a reach for you? 3.8 GPA is really high. just make sure your portfolio is excellent</p>
