<p>Hi everyone!</p>
<p>So I have just finished my Junior year of my undergrad and I have been researching possible grad schools. It has been exciting for me as I know this is a big step into my future, however I have also been VERY anxious about it. I am afraid that I won't get into my top pick which is American University's School of International Service. I am really looking for reassurance that I still stand a chance. I'm afraid that my GPA isn't quite good enough. This last semester (Spring 2014) was very rough. I had an extended illness which really messed with my academics. My professors were fair with me but I still ended up getting straight B's pretty much. As such my 3.89 GPA plummeted a little bit. I'm unsure if things like my involvement on campus will make up for it. Here is a little bit about me as a student:</p>
<p>Current Cumulative GPA: 3.67
Majors: Double Major in Political Science & International Relations
Minors: Asian Studies, Japanese, (possibly Art as well but I'm not sure)
Study Abroad: Will attend Kansai Gaidai University in Japan for my Fall 2014 semester, Asian Studies Program
Languages: Proficient in Japanese, Learning Khmer
Honor Societies: Pi Sigma Alpha (Political Science), Phi Alpha Theta (History)
Internship: Council of Foreign Affairs in my home city
-selected as a delegate from my University to the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) held at the U.N.
Job: I work in the IT Department at my University
<em>Extracurricular Activities</em>
Tennis Team
Omega Phi Alpha - National Service Sorority (community service and international service projects)
School Newspaper Editor
International Student Organization Board Member
Campus Activities Board Member</p>
<p>*i haven't taken the GRE test yet but I am planning on doing so soon.</p>
<p>My real question is based off of these things can I relax a little bit and not be as anxious about getting into AU as I currently am?</p>
<p>Any opinions would be much appreciated!</p>
