i am currently a junior at my school. my current GPA is 2.98 unweighted and 3.55 weighted. i have not taken the ACT or SAT but on the ACT i am expecting a 26-30 probably closer to 28. i have taken 28 semesters of honors classes and will probably have 5 or so more by the end of my first semester of senior year. i have taken 4 semesters of AP classes and will probably get at least another 3 by the end of the first semester of senior year. i have 1 year of chess club, 3 years of variety tennis, 1 year of JV soccer and 2 years of varsity soccer. i have had a job teaching kids tennis. i am around 80% in my class, and i take hebrew for my language outside of school. what are my chances of getting into the 3 schools stated above. and what way can i improve to be more appealing to the schools. and if i would be accepted would i be able to get any scholarships.
and i live in ohio which is where all these schools are located.
Google the Common Data Set for each school and look at section C.
on schools like ohio state, it says the average GPA is something like 3.7, when it says that does it mean wighted or unweighted?
Though you are a junior, until you are accepted, raise your GPA as much as possible. As long as your ACT score is above 24 you should be good for Kent State.
I am not knowledgeable about Ohio University, but OSU is a totally different subject.
You could apply to one of their satellite campuses, spend a year there, then transfer to their main campus. Not only could this raise admissions chances, it can also lower the tuition because you aren’t on main campus.
The Honors and AP classes definitely will help you!!
Good luck!
i also have a slight upward GPA trend and i think i will end this semester and 1st semester of senior year with a 3.7-3.85 wighted both semesters, assuming i also get a 28 on my ACT what do you think my chances are for getting into the main campus of OSU?
i also think my GPA will end at 3.05-3.1 unweighted and 3.65-3.7 weighted
