What are my chances of getting into UConn?

Applying to College
1

<p>I'm a sophomore, I screwed up last year and got C's so my GPA is a 3.6 which isn't anything to brag about but it's not completely bad, I haven't got a C all year so my GPA will be over a 4.0 by the end of the year because I'm in some honors. I am only in two clubs (Best Buddies & Ultimate Frisbee, which I know, aren't good for a college application) but I'm starting to volunteer (I have two hours so far, I'm proud) and I plan to have over 75 hours by the time I graduate. </p>

<p>My schedule for next year is:</p>

<p>AP Psych, AP English Lang, Chemistry Honors, Trigonometry, Spanish II, American History Honors and Physiology/Anatomy Honors.</p>

<p>The clubs I'm going to be in next year are Student Government, Student Advisory Committee, Key Club and Ultimate Frisbee Club.</p>

<p>My schedule for Senior year is:</p>

<p>AP Human Geo, AP English Lit, Spanish III Honors, Pre-Med Honors, AP Environmental, AP Macroeconomics and Pre-Calculus.</p>

<p>The clubs I'm going to be in my Senior year are National Honors Society, BETA, Student Government, Student Advisory Committee and possibly Key Club.</p>

<p>I haven't taken the SAT yet, but my scores on my PSAT were above average and I'm doing a lot of practice so I will have a fairly high score when I take it. </p>

<p>What do you think are my chances of getting into UConn? Be honest. I need advice/comments. Thanks so much!</p>

<p>Grade-wise, I think you’re a shoo-in if you’re in-state, and I would imagine your chances aren’t too shabby if you’re out-of-state either.</p>

<p>That being said, though, definitely bulk up on the extracurriculars. I’m from Connecticut, and I know a few people with pretty good grades but few ECs who got rejected. I think your grades will probably get you into UConn fine, but do more during the summer or something to make it look like you do things other than schoolwork.</p>

<p>Thanks so much I definitely will get involved way more, I’m kind of shy but I shouldn’t let that stop me. Actually I live in Florida, but my dad is a Connecticut resident and we called and I’m considered an in-state student :slight_smile: But once again, thanks I will definitely get involved way more.</p>

<p>Aim for a 1800-2000ish and would have a great chance goodluck.</p>
