<p>Hi I am a Hispanic (on my transcript) male from Houston, Texas and I am thinking about applying to UVA for the 2009 spring semester. It has always been my dream school and I just did not have the grades in high school. I go to UTSA and my GPA is a 3.35 and I have 35 hours after my freshman year. I am a history major and would like to continue that if I got into UVA. In high school I was not a very good student i think maybe a 3.0 or so and not very good on the SAT 1160/1600. I was not a very focused student. I was however All-state wrestling, all-state lacrosse, student class president, newspaper staff, on the disciplinary board etc... With just this information provided and the idea that I make a 4.0 first semester and raise my GPA what are my chances of acceptance for the spring semester? What else should/can I do? Any and all advice is greatly appreciated. Also, what would my chances be ant UNC-CH? Thanks.</p>
