<p>Hey, I'll make this short and sweet...</p>

<p>Gender: Male
Race: White
Major: Political Science</p>

<p>Resident of PA.
Applying to UPark.</p>

<h2>GPA (Unweighted/Weighted)</h2>

<p>Freshman - 2.6/2.8
Sophomore - 3.8/3.9
Junior - 3.8/4.1</p>

<p>Cummulative - Not quite sure. I think just above a 3.5 weighted. Freshman year had the most credits.</p>

<p>Heaviest schedule available.</p>

<h2>SAT (With Writing/Without)</h2>

<p>2180/1440</p>

<h2>Significant ECs</h2>

<p>Captain of Debate Team
18 hrs/week Photo Lab Technician @ CVS/Pharmacy</p>

<h2>Conclusion</h2>

<p>I already submitted my application. Foolishly didn't check that I'd be fine with summer session. Personal statement about my debate involvement. GPA is low. Tests are high. Worried.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance...</p>

<p>Your SATs are well within PSU UP's range for admission and your GPA shows improvemnt through your HS career. I would say that you have a real good shot at UP admission this fall. </p>

<p>Good call on the personal statement.</p>

3

<p>if you want, you can call/email admissions and say that you'd like to change your application so that you'd like to be considered for summer if you don't get into fall.</p>

<p>Most recent SATs put me at a 2280/1480 (single sitting), if that changes anything...</p>

<p>And yeah, I might call them and ask to change my application.</p>

<p>Oh, and I checked my weighted GPA and it's a 3.6, so take that into account as well.</p>

<p>Thanks everyone so far!</p>
