Montegut, there’s not a lot of traffic on this forum, so pardon me again jumping on your thread. Maybe there’ll be other replies, but if not…

I don’t believe you will get IN-STATE tuition without residency. Scholarships are the best you can do, I am quite certain.

YES, they look at weighted GPA. That specific question was raised during our info session there. I am not sure how they handle a lack of ranking – I have the same issue – but I used a worst-case number and it doesn’t dramatically affect RAI. Additionally, the rep at our session said that they are happy to look at kids who don’t meet the threshold. The message I got was don’t sweat the minor arithmetic details. There is flexibility. Sorry that’s not a great answer but hope it helps.

As for housing, I know you’re applying for it simultaneous with your admissions app. It is not a 2-step process. Don’t know the earliest date – hoping that’s findable online, but yes, earlier is better although there was no indication of shortages or any sort of panic situation.
