Hey guys,

I’m looking into applying to the university’s School of Architecture for EA, and I would like some opinions on my chances of getting into the university.

GPA: 2.9 unweighted/3.3 weighted
ACT: 28
ECs: I’ve been in my school’s Student Government Association since sophomore year as a class representative. I’ve also been in Green Club and Fashion Club since junior year. Last year I volunteered at the Nashville Humane Association. I’m currently working at Laser Quest, for 3 months now, and plan to work there until next summer. I am also in a Freshman-Senior mentoring program.

I’ll be graduating with 12 honors classes and 7 AP’s. I know my GPA is low but my grades have increased GREATLY since sophomore year. I’m a first generation college student and I am African American.

Thanks.
