Colleges & Universities A-Z Indiana University - Bloomington

<p>White (Jewish) Male, Middle class
Live in R.I, but can claim CT residency as well
Public Magnet High School
First generation college student in my family</p>

<p>3 AP's taken (A- in AP English Language and B+ in Bio last year, currently have a B+ in Ap English Literature
Fairly tough courseload over the course of my HS career, pretty good amount of honors classes. Also, I'm taking 8 courses this year as a senior which includes about 4 business/computer classes if that somehow helps.
Lots of Leadership positions/Volunteer work/Clubs and sports/work experience which I'm including when they send in my transcripts and stuff. I'm also sending in the optional essay as well which I really like. I really love my EC's and stuff, which includes alot of leadership.</p>

<p>Unweighted GPA- 3.1 There is a rising trend in my grades though. My freshman avg was 82, same goes for sophmore year. Then my juniour year average was a 92, and so far in senior year I have all A's besides for 2 B+'s. I also have an A+ in pre-calc so far.</p>

<p>SAT- 1070 (out of 1600), 1610 (out of 2400). Yeah, I know, pretty damn crappy scores.</p>

<p>I already got into Arizona State and WVU, are Indiana's admissions kinda similar or no?</p>

<p>I'm hoping that my EC's, essays, and reccomendations can help me in, any predictions at my chances would be extremely helpfull. Perhaps the fact that I'm from R.I/CT can somehow help?</p>

<p>Indiana has an average GPA of 3.3, I believe. That puts you a little below their average and GPA is the most important factor.</p>

<p>For your test scores, you are right around their 25% marks, a little higher. If you had recs and essays that you sent, that will only help you, as well as an EC list.</p>

<p>You're about an average applicant to the university. Indiana is similar in admissions to ASU and WVU, but they are a much better university academically. I'd say you have about an average chance, which is about 75%. Indiana wants your money.</p>

<p>Thanks. Also, I don't think they'll receive all my materials (including the application) until mid December or so. Will that decrease my chances you think? or is that fine? I figure December is about the month where they probably receive the most applications.</p>

<p>It will decrease your chances - as you will be behind the bulk of applicants to the university, and less spots will be avaliable. But I still think you would have a good chance of admission.</p>
