<p>I know my gpa really puts me at a disadvantage, can I still get into school with this gpa? </p>

<p>Is that weighted or unwieghted? </p>

3

<p>unweighted</p>

<p>How is your class rigor? If you are taking all honors classes/AP, then I you should get in to all of them, probably with some decent financial aid. </p>

5

<p>I take all IB classes</p>

<p>Um, not so fast in listing UW-Seattle as a match or safe school. My son had a similar SAT score on his first round, and improved it to 2060. He was also an IB candidate with a 3.3-3.4 unweighted GPA. His weighted GPA was over 4.0, and his ECs were at least as strong as the OP’s (lots of leadership, etc.). He received a 31 on his second ACT. He was waitlisted at University of Washington. It might be different if you’re in-state.</p>
