I finished with a 4.0 both semesters, but I'm worried because I didn't take any honors, AP, or math classes that year =/ Do you think this will decrease my chances?

Can you pay full freight at UWA? UWA is sensitive to payment capability as far as out-of-staters are concerned. But, if you mention your sickness clearly, you might have a chance.

UWA: Match (high match if you cannot pay full freight)
