What are my chances of getting into UCI??

Hi, I’m an incoming freshman for upcoming fall of 2016

gpa (weighted) 3.95
gpa (unweighted) 3.5
uc gpa 3.65
ACT 24
SAT 1670
Extra-curriculars: Key Club treasurer, LinkCrew Club VP, 200+ hours of community service, tennis for 3 year, captain of the jv team freshman and sophomore year, captain of the varsity team junior,do to medical reasons I didn’t play my senior year :frowning: , track and rowing for one year, and part of the honor society in school.

I’m also within the top 9% percent of my class and my ethnicity is Cambodian.

I’m aware that my statistics are pretty low or at least well around average; I hear various stories about people who were in a similar situation as me were able to get in but I can’t help but stress because UCI is my number one choice :slight_smile: And there has been an increase in applicants so my chances seem even slimmer

UCI: Low Reach
Test scores and UC GPA below average. UCI really likes those 4.0+ GPA’s. There is always a chance, but the it may not be in the cards. What is your intended major? Does your school have grade deflation? Do you have some solid match and safety schools on your list? Since you are in the top 9% of your school, you should be able to get into UC Merced and UC Riverside. Good Luck.
