Question Acceptance Chances

Hey guys! Quick question, I've been banking on going to UofA with friends for a little while now, and I realized that my GPA is a little bit below the school's average. Currently I have a 3.5 weighted and a 3.7 unweighted, as well as a 26 ACT compositive (with a 28 as my superscore). Oh, and I attend ASMSA, if that's any indicator.
So, what are my actual chances of getting in?

Arkansan? You'll be fine. Just apply early and make sure you keep up on all the deadlines.

Your ACT score will balance it out fine. You'll just have to submit your test score as you're below the 3.2 automatic admission Arkansas students have an easier time getting in.

Starting fall 2027 all Arkansas residents with a 3.2 get automatic acceptance, so you have 100% chance

Excellent chance! UA has a high acceptance rate and your stats will get you admitted. No worry.

Pretty much. Not overly selective.
