    yea there is a club and surf team. they got 2nd in Nationals last year I think. Im a student at UNCW and I had a 3.9 GPA in highschool and I think the average GPA is a 3.7. If youre in state its a lot easier to get in but its not impossible for out of state kids. Im from Delaware and got in. keep your hopes high. oh and the beach is about 7 miles from school so its a good car ride sadly. No shuttles either.

    I'm still in high-school myself but my parents have been telling me that colleges like to see if you're involved in many different activities in the community (on record, of course).

    Maybe go back in time and change all your tests so your race is a minority. Luckily, I'm half-asian so that helps me a little.

    Extra curriculars help, weighted GPA doesn't mean anything, good luck.

    Even when it's good it's pretty bad.

    Wilmington isn't too bad, it's safe as long as you're not a drunk idiot running around downtown at 2 am. That being said there's a lot of agro marines and though there are a lot of chicks, most of them are taken. UNCW is about as safe of a campus as you can get though. I don't know if you really need a 3.7 GPA to get in. Maybe, but it seems the students are not exactly top notch. I am a teaching assistant and I have a lot of dummies in the classes that I help out with so I don't know how these kids can have high gpa's, even in high school. The waves can be pretty bad. I will say it's pretty consistent here for the east coast but its usually small and windy. It gets pretty freaking cold here in the winter too. I think water temps bottom out around 46, it's about 47 right now. You can go surfing a lot but quality surf is quite a rarity around here and there's always plenty of 'friends' to join you when it is good, especially in WB.

    you sponging son of a b!tch. there are no spongers here in wilmington so keep your d!ck dragging self out of here. dont even think about showing your trogg self around here, stay north on the east coast. there are so many girls here but as soon as they see you bellying on a perfectly good wave, theyre going to get drier than an 80 year old vagina in death valley.
