GPA is poor according to RU standards. Apply to RU Newark and RU SAS as well as your first choice for backup.
@PrincessJas Ok, but do you think I might have a decent shot? I tried to do the best I can with what I have but how else can I show them that I am a worthy applicant?
Yea, you have a shot and its worth applying in my opinion. Just really focus on making sure your essay is great and represents you well and if there’s any personal reasons as to why your grades weren’t the best they could be there will be a section on the app for you to explain that.
Idk, I am just really conflicted. I hate the feeling of being a borderline applicant. Thanks for the reply! It was very helpful!
I wouldn’t exactly call you borderline :)). You have an average GPA and a perfect ACT score, depending on what program you’re applying to, you’ll be fine.
You will get into SAS, engineering and pharmacy average is 3.7 weighted gpa+. Although my friend did get into engineering with 3.55 weighted and 1850 sat. Good luck!!
You received a 36 on your A.C.T and a 800 on 3 of your S.A.T 2 subject test… You’re in
You must go to a very competitive H.S ! To have those standardized test scores and only 3.2 weighted gpa ?
Or will Rutgers assume that you don’t put enough attention into your studies?
My high school is ranked 102nd in the New Jersey itself.
