Yet another chances thread

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Michigan

<p>I did this a while ago but here it is updated
GPA- 3.81 UW (4.0 Sophmore year, 3.6 Junior year), around 4.6 W
I go to a pretty good private school in Michigan-we have sent 55 kids (out of about 350-400 kids) to UM the past 2 years.
Take just about all Honors/APs I can
Top 3-4% in class
33 ACT</p>

<p>Essays and Recs should be good
Not too good ECs:I own my own business that makes around $4500 per year for 6 years-put in about 1200 hours
Played Intramural Basketball for 3 years, IM Baseball for 2
Volunteer at church for 1.5 hrs most weeks for 5 years
Have coached baseball and basketball one year each
Other minor things-once again, not too good</p>

<p>Hopefully my Junior year grades don't hurt too much. What are my chances for LSA and Ross Pre-Admit?</p>

2

<p>They won’t care too much how much your business makes, more like what experience you have gained from it. You’re probably in for LSA, not sure about Ross preadmit but I think you’ve got a good shot for that too.</p>

3

<p>I think you’re in LSA. Ross on the other hand is probably a slight reach. Average GPA for Ross is a 3.9. Work diligently on those essays, if you plan to apply to Ross.</p>

4

<p>Yeah, I think you’re in for sure. The only bad thing I see is the downward trend, but I don’t think they care about that too much, do they?</p>

<p>Check out my chance thread too please xD</p>

<p>Entertainer, where did you get that stat? I saw it as a 3.8 GPA for the 2008 admits.</p>

6

<p>Match.
Class rank is very good and if what you say is true, then you should be admitted.
Just remember to apply early.</p>

7

<p>Only issue with trying to get into Ross: your ECs and your leadership. You don’t have much of either. Ross looks a lot at ECs and leadership.</p>

8

<p>Yea that was a typo. Average Ross GPA is a 3.8 and Average ACT score is a 32. I think you are a very qualified applicant. I’d say Match* When i said it might be a slight reach I was referring to the selectivity of program. Ross looks at more factors than GPA and standardized tests scores though. It can go either way.</p>

9

<p>To apply to Ross do you just need to do the one essay for it?</p>

10

<p>

Well you have to do all the other required essays too but there is one essay you have to do if you want get admitted into Ross from high school.</p>
