<p>Thanks guys.</p>

<p>oh my father is also an alumnus at pepperdine. If that makes a difference.</p>

<p>Anyone want to help?</p>

<p>I want to go to pepperdine as well but I think your GPA is a little low for them since I have heard they weigh GPA much more heavily than SAT's (average admit has 3.8 UW). I think Purdue would be a match for you, Tulane slight reach, and Syracuse/Amherst big reaches. I'm not sure about the rest.</p>

<p>You seem good except for Penn State, Tulane, and Pepperdine.</p>

<p>bump ...........</p>

<p>what state do you live in?</p>

<p>Connecticut</p>

<p>Pepperdine doesn't seem like THAT big of a reach, given the URM status but especially the legacy.</p>

<p>Having taken hard classes may compensate a little for the low GPA, but SAT seems good.</p>

<p>Kev07 what does URM stand for?</p>
