well, is that 3.25 GPA weighted or unweighted? are AP/Honors courses considered/counted into this GPA?

Based on the stats I have seen, they should welcome you with open arms with that act score-- it's at the top end of their mid 50% act results.

Whether or not your GPA includes weighted APs and honors will make a big difference.

Do APs and Honor hold more weight?
reg. classes are on a 4.0 scale, but honors and APs are on a 5.0 scale?

A lot of the people I know had a much higher gpa than that. However, I got in with about the same gpa and ACT score. You should be fine getting in but dont expect any scholarship money.
