Hey guys,
BU is one of my top schools I would like to apply to, however, i’m not sure about how competitive it is transferring into Questrom. Let me know if I have a shot? The reason my GPA is so low but I have been on Dean’s List every semester is because I stupidly took dual enrollment courses in high school and slacked off on them. As a result, they tanked and weighed my GPA down. That being said, the GPA has been a 3.667->4.0 the past 3 semesters…
