<p>CNU: Low match (if that 28 materializes)</p>

<p>‘Low match’ meaning borderlines of a reach or borderlines of a safety?</p>

<p>Borderlines of a safety.</p>

<p>I would bet that you would get in without too much trouble. I was accepted this year, so good luck!</p>

<p>@nathancbritt, Could you mind posting some of your stats? Your assurance is comforting but in my opinion my academics are still far from par.</p>

<p>Need more feedback please</p>

<p>I don’t think my stats would make you feel better, I was accepted with their biggest scholarship so my stats are probably not typical of an entering student. I can say that a friend of mine was accepted with worse credentials than this though. Like I said, I think you’ll be fine…just keep working hard!</p>
