<p>Which school do you have in mind ? I would say Carlson, CBS and IT - a little doubtful but not impossible if you raise your ACT score to 28-30, maintain your GPA and apply early. Other schools - decent chances. Good luck.</p>

<p>Sorry, can’t believe I left that out. I’m thinking either U of Minnesota-Twin Cities, of UW Madison</p>

4

<p>Wisconsin is a no, unless you can get your ACT up to a 27/28, then it’s a reach.</p>

5

<p>Don’t let your GPA fall and get your ACT to at least 28-30 and your SAT to at least 2000 if you want to get into CSOM/IT/CBS for the U and Madison in general.</p>
