Chances at BU ED?

<p>What are my chances for CAS? I have a 30 ACT (33 M, 32 E, 31 S, 24 R), 3.494 Weighted GPA (measured on 4.5 scale), 200+ hrs of volunteer work at hospital, president of local Indian-American youth group, lots of other EC’s as well. Lots of AP’s: Physics and Euro. History (10th); Calc AB, Eng. Language, US History (11th), Calc BC, Biology, Eng. Literature, Spanish Lang. (12th). I am also out-of-state (from Michigan).</p>

<p>Chances??</p>

<p>Your GPA is a bit low…3.4/4.5? However, a pretty good ACT score and applying ED will help a little. I’d say you have a decent chance, maybe 40-50% chance of acceptance.</p>

<p>Your GPA is low but your APs make up for the GPA. Make sure to send in your AP scores and indicate any AP scholar awards if you have any.</p>

<p>Chances this year are really unpredictable but don’t worry you’re definitely not an unqualified applicant. I talked with an admissions officer and she said that if you have very strong course rigor, then you wouldn’t get rejected. Either deferred or accepted. So you won’t get rejected. </p>

<p>Also out-of-state doesn’t really help your chances. BU is a private university. A lot of students from the area do apply to the school though. </p>

<p>tl;dr - You won’t get rejected. Accepted/deferred who knows.</p>
