<p>I am a florida high school senior, and I would love to go to the University of Washington. I'm not sure what my chances are though.
GPA, Unweighted: 3.3 Weughted: 4.6 - my summer dual enrollment classes havent been added yet and I got an A in both.
SAT:1760, but I am retaking it in october
I have taken AP: Human Geography(3), World HIstory(2), Environmental Science(3), US History(2), English Lang (5).
I'm currently taking AP: BIology, English Literature, Macro (next semester), Psychology
I've taken 2 Dual enrollment courses (College Algebra and American Government) and have a College GPA of 4.0
I'm also taking Pre Calculus Algebra/Trig and Micro economics.
I've been in two years of Chorus until it was shut down, 2 years of GSA, and i'm in four clubs this year, but I dont have any Service hourse/community hours - which i think will be my downfall.
I would appreciate someone chancing me :)</p>
<p>As a florida student, you’d have to pay about 46k to attend UWA.
In addition, your stats are low, so you would not qualify for any merit aid.
Odds of admission are very low but the key issue will be financial, I’m afraid.</p>
<p>If you want to go to school in Washington State, you have Seattle U, U Puget Sound, Pacific Lutheran, Walla-Walla University - and if you can look further to Oregon, check out Linfield or Lewis&Clark.
Western Washington U would be an academic match but run the NPC as it’s a public university.</p>
<p>Regardless of where you apply in the Pacif Northwest, do apply to a few schools in Florida, from USF to Eckerd to UTampa, in order to use Bright Futures if you don’t get sufficient aid at out of state colleges. (You’d get preferential packaging because you’re applying from far away for the Pacific northwest, but run the NPCs to know whether the colleges would even eb affordable).</p>
<p>Evergreen State College, in Olympia, WA, is an academic safety for almost anyone. It has open admissions, but has been included among the “Colleges That Change Lives.” It is less expensive than UW for out-of-state students. In an interesting twist, my son is attending New College of FL, which was the best financial option we had, despite being from out-of-state. He was wait-listed at University of Washington with following stats: 3.3-3.4 unweighted/4.0+ weighted (full-IB program) GPA at respected private school; 2060 SAT/31 ACT; APs taken before senior year: Human Geography (Sophomore/5); English Composition (Sophomore/3); US History (Junior/5). IB/SL tests as Junior: Math Studies (7); Spanish (5). ECs: Student Council, 4 years (Secretary as Junior, VP as Senior); Model UN, 4 years (Co-President, Senior); Junior States/Debate, 4 years (Co-President, Junior & Senior years); JV Football Manager, 10th & 11th grades. Community service projects: Navajo Reservation, and central Newark. We were shocked that he wasn’t accepted at UWA, because we considered it a solid match and he was admitted to schools that are typically more selective. I just broke down his particulars for you to let you know that it will be a definite reach for you.</p>
<p>Thank you for posting, I had read articles about Washington University denying applicants who met the criteria because budget setbacks, but the cuts were made to instate applicants mostly so I wasn’t sure what my chances would be. </p>
<p>Super late response, but it’s possible you might not get in. They don’t weight GPAs, and their middle 50% is 3,6-3.9 I believe. </p>
