<p>good ecs, but GPA is a bit low. any way to get it up around 4.4 ish? and yes, also work on sat & act scores as well. you shouldn’t have a problem getting in. good luck!</p>

<p>By the end of the first semester it should be around 4.35 and end of the year 4.45 to 4.5 if everything works out right! :)</p>

<p>As said before your GPA needs to be higher, but I think playing the first generation college card will do well to get you in, just be sure to mention it =D. I give you an “A” for your chance of getting in UNC.</p>
