3.2 GPA, 29 ACT -- Can I get into BU/Wellesley/Notre Dame/Emory?

<p>I have great extracurriculars (president of three clubs, treasurer of student government, on several academic committees, etc.). </p>

<p>I am a nontraditional student... Sort of. I went to college really early, took two years off, and then returned to college. </p>

<p>I'd be transferring from a tier 2 state school.</p>

<p>I think you'll need to raise your GPA up to be a competitive applicant for those schools.</p>

<p>With a 29 ACT, you definitely should be able to perform better than a 3.2 at a second tier school. I'd strike out Wellesley and Notre Dame. Not sure about the others.</p>

<p>Emory should be fine. It has a 45% acceptance rate for transfers. </p>

<p>Notre Dame and BU accepts about 38%.</p>

<p>Wellesley -- probably not, only 30% were accepted.</p>

<p>I am appying to emory with 3.65, I was told last year it was 34%</p>

<p>wow i didn't know emory was so accepting...does anyone know about goizueta's admit rate?</p>

<p>Emory is not hard to get into at all</p>

<p>how a/b the business school...i'd be VERY happy to hear its easy to get into as well because i've been lookin for one more safety :)</p>

<p>Notre Dame lists the average GPA for transfers as a 3.6 and you're well below that number. Also, this year they are accepting 125-130 of the 487 or so that applied.</p>

<p>Emory is 34% acceptance rate, and they require a minimum 3.0 gpa just to apply, which automatically raises the admit rate since many that would apply cannot. (Schools like BU don't have a min gpa requirement, so their admit rate is lowered naturally.)</p>

<p>ND also requires a minimum 3.0 but unless you're the next Brady Quinn, you are not getting in.</p>
