<p>Hi, I was just wondering if anybody else has applied to LSU yet? I did on the sixth. So has anybody else?</p>
<p>Nobody has applied?</p>
<p>yesssssss 
my son just applied on july 5th!!!</p>
<p>Good! I was wondering if I was the only one.</p>
<p>What do you think is the average gps to get into LsU</p>
<p>On LSU’s website it mentions a 3.0 could basically get you in. I would say a 3.0 - 3.3 would give you a good chance. And anything above would be even better obviously.</p>
<p>How do they recalculate gpa?</p>
<p>I think they take only you’re academic classes, excluding PE and those types of classes and then you have a new GPA.</p>
<p>yeah i have a 3.45 weighted gpa but i think its way lower unwieghted and thats what they take. but i got a 1070 on the sats which is above what they want so do you think ill get in?</p>
<p>What is your unweighted GPA?</p>
<p>like a 2.8 or 2.9. but im from va which is out of state so idk if that helps or hurts me</p>
<p>im in like all honors and a couple of AP classes thats why my weighted vs unweighted is so far off from eachother but im sure they would look and see that im taking harder classes</p>
<p>I think they would notice the classes and then give you some leeway.</p>
<p>yeah i hope so. its my first choice</p>
<p>They have had all of my information for one week, so now it is the waiting game. Oh joy.</p>
<p>yeah same except idk if they have my transcripts or not yet there were supposed to be sent last weeek. but it says that theyll start letting people know september 28th or somethin</p>
<p>They got my transcript July 13th, and I read the September 28th date on LSU’s website too. I hate the waiting!</p>
<p>they have sent us emails weekly saying the letters won’t come out until Sept. 28th. I don’t know why they are waiting this year cause my niece applied and got in in august last year. I’m a bit nervous. My son got a 30 on his ACT but goes to a school for gifted kids so all his classes are honors gifted. He has taken about 6 AP classes also. Due to the difficult schedule he has a 3.5 weighted and 2.9 overall. His class rank is also bad but you have to be in the top 25% in the parish to get in.WHen you look at the classes LSU looks at he only has a 2.7 gap. He is even taking classes at uno this year. I hope he gets in.</p>
<p>thats exactly where im at gpa wise but my sat is a 1070 which is a 23 on the act. i retaking them tho. but im pretty sure his 30 on the act will get him in. without a doubt</p>
