Shown lots of interest in the school (came across the country to visit)
Multi cultural / Biracial / Dual Citizen from the Bahamas
Thoughts?</p>
<p>What major are you applying for, and in what college? UCSB has three colleges: Letters and Science, Engineering and Creative Studies. </p>
<p>Also, I might be wrong but doesn’t UCSB require the SAT, not the ACT? I just know I took the SAT and not the ACT. I dunno though. </p>
<p>@CSmeow I applied for a Sociology major in the Letters and Sciences, and UCSB takes both!</p>
<p>Assuming you met the a-g requirements, I’d say you are on the bubble. Neither your grades nor test scores will set you apart in their applicant pool. You personal statement could make all the difference.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>Also forgot to mention that I took 1 AP in junior year and 3 this year!</p>
<p>I agree with NCalRent 50/50 chance. Good Luck</p>
<p>I’d say the same as the others, except ‘dual citizenship with the Bahamas’ isn’t the typical international we get in California, unless I’ve gotten out of touch, and I think it makes the applicant more interesting.</p>
<p>You have some pretty good stats; however, your schedule doesn’t sound rigorous enough. You never know though!! Good luck!</p>
