Can I get in 3.5 GPA 23 ACT?

<p>So I have a 3.449 GPA and a 23 on my ACT Iam going to retakeit . THe GPA is low because i did really bad freshmen year (3.0) but I had all HONORS classes at that time. Otherwise, sophmore and semester 1 of junior year I got all A's and one B. I am not in IB. My extra carricular include:
- I've been in a musical
- Cultural Dance
- LifeTeen (Catholic Club)
- National Art Honors Society
- 4A's Club (volunteer, community service club)
So do you think I can get in? I do live in Michigan
-Is there anything else State wants to see? I really dont play sports at all.
I am in accelerated math, accelerated french, AP English, and I am taking AP Economics, AP English, and AP Psychology senior year.
I am interested in international business or international relations</p>

<p>I got in with a 2.67 gpa and 24 act, you should be fine.</p>

<p>Really Ef0218 that GPA seems really low for MSU.</p>

<p>Yes you CAN but it’ll be a bit difficult. </p>

<p>Try taking it again and try the SAT just to be safe.</p>

<p>Your ACT is a bit low, but your GPA is on mark.</p>

<p>You should. I don’t know how much it has changed since I graduated HS. I graduated HS in Class of '09, finished with a 3.55 (but applied to MSU and got accepted with a 3.47 and a 24 on my ACTs). You would have had a MUCH better chance had you applied earlier. Why in the world would you wait until March to apply to a school that has over 12,000 incoming freshmen every single year??? SERIOUSLY, very bad planning idea.
If you really want to go to State and you don’t actually get accepted go to a community college for your first year and then easily transfer to State. They accept nearly all community college kids as long as you get above a 3.4 GPA in your community college credits. It is economically smart since it costs much less and the classes are much easier than MSU’s.
Had you applied in October then you would easily get in. Really, I have never heard of someone waiting this long until they apply to college. I remember back in '09 they told us, if you wait until December to apply then you have a slim chance. They have probably already filled up many spots and the spots they are filling right now are probably the people that got wait listed. So currently, the board is looking at the wait-listed pile to pick the best candidates and aren’t expecting new applications in MARCH!
Two months away from graduating HS and you just now applied!!!</p>

<p>I’m 99% sure the OP is a junior considering he/she is talking about 1st semester junior year…</p>

<p>gvnee89 Yeah, I know my gpa is really bad but I got accepted for biology.</p>

<p>yea you should be good, i got accepted with a 2.67 and a 1500SAT , but also really good extra curricula’s and reccomondations, OOS</p>

<p>Got in today with a 3.5 GPA and 23 ACT…it’s possible</p>
