Many months ago I received excellent recommendations, but then I went out and had game changing experiences. So I'm pretty much back to square 1 which of course is excellent considering I'm applying in the fall . Any tips/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Things I need in a college: Strong geoscience programs especially in the atmospheric science/environmental science branches. Encouragement of undergrad research (I.e. a place where professors are known to take plenty of undergrads under their wings and where I would be able to secure plenty of opportunities)
Things I want: Marching/concert band, LGBT center, honors, merit money
I've been taking ganders at UWashington and UWisconsin so if anyone has insight there that'd be great.
Here's some stats if you want those:
GPA: 3.9,UW/4.7W
Rank:top 5%
State:TX
SAT:2100 not retaken and trying to avoid it
APs: 6 (2 4s, rest not scored yet) taking 4 next year
Stuff: Drum major (2 years, my true love), other band stuff, newspaper editor for 2 years, UIL academics stuff, NHS, volunteer stuff
Financials: I can pay whatever but I really would rather keep it cheap which means it's either merit aid or TAMU
Thanks to all, have a lovely day. You rock.
