What are the chances that I'll get in? I'm worried because of my GPA, but I know that some people with surprisingly low GPA's get accepted into UW. Thanks so much! :)</p>
<p>Your ACT is above average and your GPA is below
Your GPA is in the bottom 15% of all freshman that attend the UW
You have a shot though</p>
<p>Write great essays and you have a good shot at getting in. Is there any reason for the low GPA? If so, explain it on your app!</p>
<p>I did explain it. I had to take HL math as part of my IB diploma even though I knew it’d be a really tough course (I was so accelerated in math that I had no other choice, I couldnt go back to Calculus), and there were certain medical issues that killed my math grade freshman year, too.</p>
