Chance Me- Ohio State

I have a 3.918 GPA with a 4.0 grading scale and no weighted classes. I am a senior in Ohio, and I have a 21 on the ACT and I am very involved with the school and community. Do I have a decent chance of getting into OSU?

Your ACT is very low for osu

I agree with lostsenior4829, that your ACT is weighing you down. But since you’re in-state perhaps if you articulate the community work it may resonate. Good luck!

Can you dunk a basketball or shoot the 3? Basketball team could use a lot of help right now. Football team needs less help though. Based on the Iowa game, how is your man-to-man coverage?

It is very hard to tell. You have a big disconnect between your ACT score and your GPA. When I looked at Naviance for a large OH HS (~225 app/year), I can’t find anyone with your mix that applied at THE Ohio State University. Have you considered taking the Dec 2nd SAT exam?

Thank you very much!

Try and retake, study and you can most likely raise your score. Collegeboard has free full length SAT practice tests online. You can prep with Khanacademy.

If you cannot get into tOSU as a freshman, then maybe a branch campus or a community college with guaranteed transfer pathway to tOSU.

I would say your a bit of a stretch since your ACT is so low. Good luck!
