Chances at DePaul.

<p>What are my chances of getting into DePaul University -Chicago, Illinois </p>

<p>Female
ACT: 21
GPA: 3.0
Extra-Curriculars: Key Club, Spanish Club (Treasurer), Book Club, Creative Writing Club and some volunteering
Ethnicity: Hispanic
Class Rank- Upper 50% </p>

<p>I want to major in English. </p>

<p>I applied.... but I think my answers to 2 questions sucked. They weren't quite essays, yet I wasn't sure if they wanted a huge 10 page paper about it, or just a few paragraphs. There were 2 questions.</p>

<p>Yes, I have already been accepted to 3 schools
but I have decided that I don't want to go to any of them...</p>

<p>not to try and be discouraging, but i dont think you have a good shot at all. Ur GPA is definately low, and ur ACT could be 3 points higher. But best of luck...you'll need it</p>

<p>No that's fine. I appreciate your honesty! I know DePaul is pretty selective.</p>

<p>I'm relying on my ECs, recommendations, ethnicity, and possible interview to (maybe) get me in.</p>

<p>I don't know if it's true, but I hear a lot of the people that go to Depaul have mega-bucks.. and Chicago can be expensive.</p>

<p>Just apply anyway, I mean... I see some people who get into schools and you really have no idea how or why. The GPA is low and the ACT is above average. A 22+ would be best, but.. why not just try it and see. What do you have to lose?</p>

<p>Oh definitely. How do you think they afford to go shopping on Michigan avenue and live near lincoln park?</p>

<p>lol am I that hopeless?
I've already been accepted to 3 colleges: California State- Long Beach, California State - Northridge and UW- Stevens Point. </p>

<p>I hate my ACT score! I got a 26 in english and a 25 in reading. I just suck at Science and I'm terrible at Math (score of 14). But I do have a rising trend in my grades. My GPA sucks because my freshman and sophomore years I completely disregarded school altogther. However, my junior and senior years were much different and I actually got an Academic Letter for being on the honor roll a lot. It is just hard bringing up a GPA that is really low. </p>

<p>I can't go to the college I originally had planned to go to (UW-Stevens Point) for personal reasons. So it's very important that I get into DePaul.</p>

<p>bump?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
