<p>-3.9 gpa after 35 credits
-average high school gpa and ACT (focused way too much on athletics during high school)
-work each week and lots of involvement in my CC fraternity, phi theta kappa
-<em>had a few dropped classes but had at least a year straight of 3.9 or higher gpa.</em>
-teacher recommendation letter (teacher went to UMich)
-phi theta kappa letter of recommendation
-played soccer for college currently attending</p>
<p>I plan on applying to the University of Michigan, Michigan State University, University of Chicago, and New York University....possibly one more?? (if accepted to UMich that will be my choice)</p>
<p>What are my chances of acceptance at each of those Universities?? I can't find some of the admission criteria for some of the schools? and what could i do to boost my chances??</p>
<p>my high school gpa and ACT was low as i focused way too much on athletics. gpa in high school was a 3.4 and ACT was a 21…i hope they do not care too much about what i did 3 years ago (act taken junior year of h.s.) but what iv’e done lately</p>
<p>my ec’s during college is phi theta kappa member, work every week, and participated in some community service. there are not a lot of opportunites for involvement at my community college but i try to get involved as much as i can.</p>
<p>–my major i would like to go for at UMich will be Economics and Mathematics joint major if possible, or possibly Economics with a minor in mathematics and finance if possible. not exactly sure of the combination yet</p>
<p>well the university of chicago now has an acceptance rate of about 19 because of a 45 percent increase in applications. they are extremely selective and will definitely look at your act. </p>
<p>Nyu college of arts and science is probably a lock but good luck with financial aid!</p>
<p>what would you suggest to increase my chances of acceptance at UMich? or UChicago?</p>
<p>i figured MSU to be my safe school, NYU to be my match school, UMich to be in between a match and a reach, and UChicago to be my reach. is that pretty accurate??</p>
<p>yes that seems accurate if you are applying to cas at nyu. stern would be a high reach bc they are around 6% acceptance. </p>
<p>For umich if you really want to go there, i suggest that you spend alot of time on your essays and make them perfect and completely explain why you want to go there. </p>
<p>for chicago, the essays have to be so unique as to why you want to go there and no where else. ive seen people with a 4.0 and 750 760 and 730 on each part of the sat and still get rejected. in 2008 it was 10% acceptance for trnsfers and 2009 was like 16 but they also recieved more apps. </p>
<p>I say focus on michigan if you really wanna go there. chicagos deadline is march 1st so yea you cant really imporve by then.</p>
<p>CAS is theoretical, while Stern is more pre-professional. Also, at Stern you will receive a bachelor of science degree, but at CAS you will receive a bachelor of arts degree.</p>
