Average/Slightly Above Students - Recent Acceptance Thread

<p>Hey there all you none 2400's/4.0s (or similar)!</p>

<p>As I've already received a couple acceptance letters (with my 3.2 and 1830)....
I'm really curious to know where the rest of the regular fall of 2013 freshman applicants have been accepted so far!</p>

<p>It would definitely help some of the more average students understand where they have a shot at. So, that being said... No shame here!</p>

<p>OMGEZZY NORMAL STUDENT ON CC COME TO MEEEEEE</p>

<p>Well, I’m not class of 2013 so that’s awkward. But still, it’s not like slightly above students are hopeless- there are plenty of good schools for B students y’know.</p>

<p>completely agree milkyway! as an avid CC user, it can be so discouraging to only see posts from the creme de la creme applicants. Us average kids matter too! </p>

<p>If this helps, this is my status so far…</p>

<p>Lasell College - Presidential Scholarship/Honors Program/Scholarship for another 30k for EC’s and such
University of New Haven - Scholarship/Honors Program/Invite to Business Fast Track Program
Loyola New Orleans - Financial aid will be awarded sometime in Feb
George Mason - (same as Loyola)</p>

<p>… all of these BEFORE I retook my SAT. Meaning I was at a 1720 when I applied/got accepted to these schools</p>

<p>Finally! Another average student (3.32 and 1660)
Applying to

<p>bumpbumpbump</p>

<p>I wonder where the other average kids are? Are we the only ones on CC.</p>

<p>I’m averageee! :)</p>

<p>I got accepted into Saint Peter’s University in NJ :slight_smile: Haven’t received any others yet!</p>

<p>I think I’m average, even though I have a highish sat. ~3.7-3.9w with a 2110 sat . My gpa has me soo worried. Anyways, applied to UC’s (UCLA, UCB, UCI, & UCSD) and CSU’s (SLO, SF, LB, SD) last month.</p>

<p>I’m working on my other apps now. I’m just ready to be done.</p>

<p>Sent from my SGH-T589 using CC</p>

<p>Daughter has 3.3 gpa, 1640 SAT</p>

<p>Accepted: RIT, Bellarmine, Roanoke
Waiting: DePaul, St. Edwards, California Lutheran</p>

<p>I guess I’m kind of a weird normal. 4.4 GPA (besides 4 honors classes and 1 AP, my whole schedule has been regular level), but only a 28 ACT (1810 SAT but I didn’t send those).</p>

<p>Accepted so far:
Lock Haven University, PA
Saint Peter’s University, NJ
Rowan University, NJ (Rowan Scholars Program Scholarship included)</p>

<p>Still waiting to hear back from my reaches and more. (I hear back from FIVE schools all next week…). I’m preparing myself for many rejections LOL</p>

<p>why would a 3.7-3.9 make u “soo worried” buttafly? clearly ur not an average student if you have beyond a 2000 sat! u sound almost mocking.</p>

<p>Buttafly13…you actually think youre average. It really does sound like youre braggiong</p>

<p>I’m below average but whatever. 3.4 GPA and 24 ACT. accepted to: WVU still waiting to hear from: Syracuse (first choice applied ED), penn state (huge reach but they gave me a free application so might as well), pace, st johns. I’m waiting to apply to SUNY Albany, Louisville, and UNLV til I hear from Syracuse. Good luck to everyone!!</p>

<p>mama duck, you give me hope! Waiting to hear from RIT. DS13 has a 3.5 GPA with a 1640 SAT also. Waiting to hear some news for acceptance into Mech Engineering. His portal just says now is the time to apply–Grrr!,</p>

<p>NhMom, Daughter did not try for engineering - she is arts. RIT publishes the test ranges for each major, and as you know admits by major. Arts does have a lower test range than Engineering. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you! I’m not sure they’ll come up with enough money for us (long story).</p>

<p>No, I’m sorry if it wasn’t clear, I said 3.7-9w, weighted. My school only does weighted gpa, but I self calculated my unweighted gpa to be around a 3.2-3.4. I would never mock, my gpa is low to average. </p>

<p>Does a 3.9 and a 1900+ constitute as “average?”</p>

<p>Just for clarification, the national average SAT score is a 1508 (CR: 498, M: 514, W:488). The average ACT is a 21.1 But these scores are somewhat inflated because people who aren’t going to college or know they are going to the CC typically do not take standardized tests. A few states require it for graduation, and averaging the scores of the states with 100% ACT participation, shows that the national ACT average is about a 20.</p>

<p>In 2009, the average female GPA (UW) was a 3.1 while the average male earned a 2.9</p>

<p>So there you have it, if you’re around those stats, you’re about average.</p>
