<p>Gpa:2.7 Huge upward trend (3.7 gpa junior year)
SAT: 1880
I live in Arizona</p>
<p>Also, would it be better for me to wait until after my 1st semester of senior year to apply? (GPA will go up to closer to 3.0 and Im taking a very strong senior schedule)</p>
<p>Im really hoping I can at least get into a few of these (or even just one would be great)</p>
<p>Arizona State University
University of Arizona
Northern Arizona University
University of Colorado-Boulder
University of Oregon
Michigan State
Ohio State
Northeastern
Cal Poly SLO
Cal State Polytechnic- Pomona
Syracuse
Depaul
Temple</p>
<p>ASU- match
UofA- low reach
UofCO-low reach
UofO-low reach
Those are the only ones that I have really looked at. But I’d say that ASU will accept you as long as you bring that gpa up to a 3.0 before you apply. Your test score is good which will really help your chances of getting into the low reach ones. I’m confident that you will get into at least a few of these schools.</p>
<p>ps- thanks for the reply on my thread</p>
<p>Thanks. Anyone else?</p>
<p>Your GPA may be a little low for Syracuse. However, you are showing an upward trend. Colleges are holistic. They’ll take into account other things like your essay, recommendations, etc… Your SATs for Syracuse is around the average. I think you have a pretty good chance, depending on your ECs. </p>
<p>For DePaul, again, your GPA may be low, BUT you’re showing an upward trend which is always a good thing. Your SATs are pretty good for DePaul. On Collegeboard, it says that the SAT’s just recommended and not required. Sending your scores would definitely help. It also said that application essays are very important. I believe you have a good chance in getting into this school. I’m also applying for this school this coming fall! :)</p>
<p>For Northeastern, Collegeboard doesn’t have a report of their GPA average, but I’d imagine yours would be on the lower side. I’m being redundant, but you’re showing an upward trend. For the SATs, the average is between 1850-2130. You’re on the lower side. Their application essay is also very important. This may be a bit of a reach, but not impossible. </p>
<p>Have you taken the SATs more than once? If not, I suggest you do. Yours is good, but if you want to aim for something like Northeastern, try and get at least around 2000.
Also, if you haven’t taken the ACT, you should. Some people do better on it than the SAT. </p>
<p>What are your ECs like? Colleges definitely don’t just look at GPA and SAT scores. They’re holistic; they look at the person as a whole. From your community service, to your essays. So, your application essay can either make or break you! Make sure to do well on it!</p>
<p>Chance me on my Penn State/VCU thread? 
Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>Alright, thank you. I only took the SAT once and I haven’t taken the ACT.
Bumpp, Anyone else?</p>
<p>I’ve only known one kid who applied to Temple and he got in with a 2.9 GPA, however on their website it says the average is a 3.42 so idk, I’d guess high match if you get it up.</p>
<p>For ASU, U of A, Oregon, CU-Boulder, and Northern Arizona, it’s really going to depend on how you do this year. I would definitely recommend waiting until semester grades are added into GPA to apply. </p>
<p>Northeastern’s a reach, and I don’t know much about the other schools. What are your EC’s? Do you have any hooks? Those will help tremendously if you do.</p>
