Average GPA of an Accepted Rice Student

<p>I plan to apply to Rice as my #1 choice but i feel my GPA is so low. unweighted its a 3.5 and weighted a 4.4. So far i am making straight A's this semester and plan to do the same next semester and 1st semester of senior year. I am also in all honors and AP classes. Am I i trouble.</p>

<p>None of us can tell you much based solely on your GPA. Your grades don’t seem terrible, so I say you should apply and find out.</p>

<p>Dorian is correct. A lot of things go into admission decisions. Your class rank, for example, helps Rice look at your GPA in relative terms. If your 3.5 is rank 1/400, it matters a lot less how it compares to other applicants from different schools.</p>

<p>My school doesn’t rank so that doesn’t help. I haven’t taken the ACT yet. I am also apart of a lot of in school and out school extracurriculars.</p>

<p>You should apply. Rice looks at your whole application when considering admission. We cannot determine how they feel. Do the best job you can and good luck!</p>
