Chance me for admission :)

GPA: 3.31, expecting an increase after 1st semester ends maybe to 3.4ish
SAT: 1230
Extracurriculars:
Community service club at school 11,12
Local Musical Performance Group (Not school affiliated) 9,10,11
A handful of different volunteer work I won’t bother to list them
Work (Not sure if they even look at this, oh well) - Held one job all of 11th grade, and am currently employed somewhere else (Roughly 20 Hours a week)

My finance teacher is writing me a nice letter of rec as I want to be a finance major

I know my GPA is a little low and I heard they weren’t even looking at SAT scores as a big factor anymore :frowning: but JMU is my #1 school and I will be very dissapointed if I’m denied admission

Also im from the Tidewater area of VA if that makes a difference

Also I took 2 AP’s, Macroeconomics (scored a 4) and Im in AP Government currently

They do not require SAT’s but if submitted will factor into your app. You should definately include them and yes, I think you will get in…

Honestly just being from Tidewater helps. A lot of the super competitive apps come from NOVA and they need more people from elsewhere in VA. Your sat is also good which will help! Good luck!
