<p>I’m not sure about your chances for Bentley U but I can tell you that the avg. GPA last year for transfers to Northeastern was around a 3.33, at least that is what they said at the info session. </p>

<p>As for you HS stats. They are almost identical to mine. I think I got around a 1640 or something on the SAT’s and a 3.45 or so throughout 4 years. I chose to go to JC. My GPA is about the same but my HS stats will not be considered. I don’t think I am a shoe in but I think I could get in. In other words, I have no idea if I am going to get in.</p>

<p>haha, well good luck to you! Hoping we both get in! I’d LOVE to attend NEU, I just don’t know how many spots are going to be available, the increase in applicants, and the increase in expectations. I am sure I can do well and excel there, I just have to put in the effort! I wish I did better my first semester, but that’s all in the past now! Hoping that my recommendation letters help get me in! that would be AWESOME!</p>

<p>bump. anyone? I’ll chance back!! please provide some useful insight if you can!</p>

<p>Yea. I think out chances are decent. I think being around the average with some pretty spectacular extra curriculars will give me a good shot. </p>

<p>If your considering neu are you considering Drexel? If not, why?</p>

<p>I know that Northeastern is a very good school, but I’d say you have a shot. I had a 3.4 in high school and had a 3.73 the first semester at a middle-of-the-road school, and I got in, so I’d say that you’re well-equipped if you keep up the grades.</p>
