<p>I am a senior in HS </p>
<p>I understand I could have done way better. Could have had a 4.0 easily instead of a 3.0 in high school but thats not even the thing. Yes I do sports and have enough Extra Cir. I played Var Football, basketball and was on robotics club and spanish club and 150 + volunteer hours...
3.0, ACT 27 (retaking in Feb 9.) 6 Ap/IB classes (3 in 11th and 3 now in 12th)
I basically put all my hope getting into MSU. I got denied. CC isn't really an option. Parents.</p>
<p>Got deferred by U of M
Got into Central Mich. Wayne State, and U of M Dearborn.
Just applied at Miami of Ohio yesterday and Arizona State University. </p>
<p>Please reply on what you think I should do.
Just in a very stressful place.
I applied as an engineer at every school listed above </p>
<p>A part of the reason I guess is that everyone else I know is going to U of M and MSU from my school and some throughout the various places in Michigan. 3 kids in my grade going to Miami of Ohio. Out of the 500 Graduating kids. around 100+- go to MSU and about 50ish or so go to U of M. even though a lot more get in. </p>
<p>My parents want to move to California during the summer because we have fam there and they wanna move before my brother (7th grader) is in HS to make the transition easier for the little guy. Now if I got into MSU or U of M there wouldn't be a problem. Good school, parties, food and overall the college experience and life I want. But if they move there Now i cant even APPLY to the UC college down there (DEADLINE HAS PASSED). Plus if i did go to a smaller school or CC down there I literally know no one. It would be hell. Going to CC in Michigan would atlas be better because I know the area and literally everyone in oakland county. I would be able to enjoy time with friends and still get a good education. </p>
<p>If I do get into ASU or Miami of Ohio I guess I'm torn on the fact that I wouldn't know anyone. I do wanna go of course but I'm scared and also somewhat just disappointed I will never be a spartan. I do understand that I can appeal to MSU but being realistic, unless I come up with some emotional story or good ass essay on why they should still consider and look at my I'm not getting in. So at this point in time im ****ed.
Even though I still haven't gotten a reply from U of M because 7th semester grades aren't done just yet, no one I know gets into U of M with a 27 ACT and 3.0 (9th-11th). Yes I am retaking it and will send those scores hoping for a 30+. But even then if i go to dearborn (U of M) or CC or anywhere transferring to any college even with a 3.5+ or even a 4.0 does not mean you will get a spot at the college you wish to transfer, meaning you will get screwed. I Feel like thats what would happen.
Now don't even get me started about OOS tuition which is another reason if I go to ASU or OHIO U it would be costly. And the only reason my parents WERENT gonna move was because I would get In state Tuition but whats the point of that if i am not going to MSU or U of M </p>
<p>NOW BEfore anyone responds, I am of Asian background and its almost a disgrace not going to a good college or if you go to CC to start out with in the culture we have. So thats another problem.
All in all just any advice, suggestions and recommendations would be nice.</p>
