After being deferred, I sent an email to the admissions office expressing continued interest in SCU, which they said they made a note of. I also submitted a third letter of rec from my AP calc teacher (I got an A fairly easily so it should be good. My first semester GPA was a 3.83 UW and 4.33 W, which is the highest it has ever been in my hardest course load to date.
Hi @willa99 it really depends on if you showed that you had jesuit values and if the admissions officers see you as a good fit at SCU. The business school is more competitive to get into, but I think you can get in, you have a strong application. I applied to SCU for RD and I’m hoping to get in. Best of luck to you!!
Just to let everyone know, I was accepted into arts and sciences!
