<p>Hello, I'm here to find out my chances for getting accepted into UM through Early Action.</p>

<p>I plan on enrolling in the School of Communications if I am accepted into the college.</p>

<p>I speak English and Spanish fluently and have been taking French for four years.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.00 unweighted, 3.6 weighted</p>

<p>SATs: 1750 (first try, will retake)
ACT: 29 (first try, will retake)</p>

<p>Classes:
All IB, mostly A's and B's in every subject besides math
AP virtual school class (AP Micro economics)</p>

<p>ECs:
JV and Varsity member of my school's crew team (practice 3 hours a day for 6 days a week)
50 Hours of Community Service at an animal shelter
50 hours Community Service in environment clean-ups run by my county
Masterminds for one year
Marching Band for four years
I've played tenor saxophone for 7 years
Part time job at a catering business over the summer
Karate and Jiu Jitsu for three years, Brown belt in both</p>

<p>I know my GPA is low, I suffered from depression and an eating disorder Freshman/Sophomore year and found no interest in school, but over Junior year I joined IB and started getting better grades.</p>

<p>Thank you for reading this, and try and give me the most honest answer for my chances.</p>

<p>Much appreciated.</p>

<p>Are you Hispanic? I’m not too sure If that will help too much as UMiami has a large Hispanic community. Your GPA will really Hinder your chances but your ACT score is very well in range. I suggest you definitely retake it though. Your ECs aren’t very impressive unfortunately. All you can do is apply at the moment but go into this decision knowing that it is a reach. I think if you write a good essay explaining your improvement through High School and overcame depression then you would have a better chance. But all in all Good Luck!!</p>

<p>Your ACT definitely puts you over the edge as far as standardized testing is concerned, but your GPA may reduce your chances somewhat. Your ECs look good, though, so I think you a have a pretty good chance.</p>

<p>Chance me?!
