female, asian-american, out of state
gpa: 3.3/4 uw (grades weren’t the best in freshman and sophmore years but maintained all a’s for junior and senior years (wrote more about this in my essay))
no sat/act scores
3 honors classes
ec: student council, class representative, plays various instruments, fluent in four languages, created and ran my own small business selling jewelry
Please describe the transcript in more detail, by year.
My opinion is that you will not get into Babson. Bentley will depend mostly on the transcript and how strong you look Junior and Senior year. Anything less than straight A’s feels like a waitlist to me.
I can’t tell you what your chances are. Both schools are difficult admissions. What I can tell you is that both are among the rare college where male enrollment is substantially greater than female. As a result, females are admitted at a higher rate than makes, so that should be encouraging for you.
thanks for the response! yes, i applied to a few safety schools that im pretty positive ill get into, just wanted to see my chances for babson and bentley.
for freshman and sophmore years, i had a mix of a’s, b’s, and a few c’s. for junior and senior years, i had all a’s.
That is good to hear. Good luck with the process. Those schools can be especially challenging, but fingers crossed for you. @Bill_Marsh makes a good point about the ratios. Babson has gotten more evenly balanced over the years, but maybe will help at Bentley.
