<p>Hello,
I was wondering what my chances are regarding admission to George Mason University? My freshmen year GPA was absolutely horrid (2.5). However, it has risen immensely, with a 3.5 sophomore year and a 3.9-4.0 my junior year, with a number of APs. Also, my SAT score is incredibly average, at an 1800. I have good EC's: I've started a religious diversity club, I am captain of my schools debate team and ranked as the top speaker in NJ, I am politically active, and I've written for a politically oriented online magazine. Furthermore, I am a black belt and work as a assistant, teaching martial arts. Additionally, I will have glowing recommendations from truly qualified teachers. Unfortunately, I am an out of state student (NJ) which I know can hinder my chances. I would love some insight regarding my chance of admission.
Thank you very much</p>
<p>GMU: Match</p>
<p>I think a steadily rising GPA looks good to most colleges. It shows that you worked out whatever was holding you back freshman year. Your ECs look good too. I think you have a very good chance at GMU.</p>
<p>It a match for you. I’d be surprised if you did not get in
Best of luck! Chance back?

<p>What have you heard about the social life at mason? Im curious about what others have heard, as I’m applying as well. you’ll get in btw</p>
<p>I think it is a match for you. A poor freshman performance is not the end all be all of college admission. </p>
