GPA: 3.6/4.0
Unweighted: 4.0/4.2
ACT: 30 (Omg…)
SAT: 2010 (CR: 710, Math: 680, writing 620) Superscore would be 2050

I’m literally 1 point away from provost scholars T.T. Is there any chance I would still be able to get in?
do you mean for the ACT? your SAT score is 1390 for cr and math. how much do you need for provost these days?
31 act
@LyricalSinner Can you clarify your GPA? You show one that is 3.6/4.0 but then underneath that show one that is 4.0/4.2 and is labelled unweighted. If your 3.6 GPA is really the unweighted one and that includes non-core courses it’s possible Temple might calculate your GPA as lower than 3.6 when they strip out non-core courses and apply whatever weighting algorithm they use (which in my experience does not heavily weight Honors or AP classes).
But that being said, assuming your GPA is above the minimum, your SAT qualifies you but your ACT does not. Both are NOT required to be eligible as many students only submit an SAT or an ACT - in fact some submit neither score using the Temple Option program.
Did you send both your ACT and SAT scores to Temple? I’m not sure anyone on these boards has directly addressed this scenario of what happens when you send both but only one meets the minimum. My expectation would be that as long as either your SAT or ACT meets the minimum you’d be qualified.
But this might be a good question to directly pose to the admissions department.
i am pretty sure Temple only counts the higher score, which for you i think is the SAT.
