Chances for AVG. student

<p>Alright please rank my chances for these schools</p>

<p>Im from San Diego</p>

<p>Weighted gpa: 3.3
Unweighted gpa: 3.0
SAT:
Match: 660
CR: 620
Writing: 590
1280 (1860)
Good recs and an incredible essay(really it is perfect.)</p>

<p>Schools:</p>

<p>Boston University (College of General studies)
Northeastern
American University
George Washington University
Univ. of Colorado boulder
University of Minn. Twin cities
Drexel
San Diego State</p>

<p>P.S. How would it effect my education if I went to the general studies program in BU instead of Business which is what I would go into if I had any chance of getting into it.</p>

<p>apply to the business school and if you would get rejected they will just put you into CGS</p>

<p>bump, some more responses would be appreciated</p>

<p>I thin SDSU would be a safety for you, and I hear it is excellent for business. I think American and Northeastern are good matches for you.</p>

<p>I think GPA is a bit low for Minnesota. Also, they have a very competitive business school, one of the top in the country.</p>

<p>thanks, does me being from San Diego help me for any of the schools outside of California.</p>

<p>well, any more replys</p>

<p>bump, bump</p>

<p>Is this thread dead or are the people on here only interested in giving 4.0 students thier opions.</p>

<p>hmm Id say northeastern is a low Match
Drexel I think you can get into
thats all I can comment on</p>

<p>Boston University- Decent match. I think your SAT's are probably fine for BU, but your GPA could end up getting you rejected.</p>

<p>Northeastern- Pretty good match. Althought the GPA hurt, you've got somewhat above the average SAT which could definitely help.</p>

<p>American University- Probably rejected because of your GPA. Somewhat similar chances as BU.</p>

<p>George Washington University- You've got slightly above the average SAT at GWU, but I think your GPA will keep you out.</p>

<p>Univ. of Colorado- Very good chance of getting in</p>

<p>University of Minn. Twin cities- See Colorado</p>

<p>Drexel- Decent chance of getting in</p>

<p>San Diego State- Definitely in</p>

<p>About business schools, I don't think you'll get into any of them as a direct admit because of your GPA, but you can always enter after sophmore year. UMN I think is 14th in the nation which is great.</p>

<p>No, I love not giving 4.0 students opinions.</p>

<p>It's just that I don't know much about any of these schools other than Minnesota. And I know that as an OOS applicant, you're going to need around a 3.3 to get in. And their business is even more competitive, it's a top 10 business school for undergraduate study.</p>

<p>I don't think it's logical saying you have a very good chance of getting in, because your GPA, the most important factor in admissions, is lower than nearly all other applicants you're competing against.</p>

<p>thats so true...others only want to tell 4.0'ers that they can get in</p>

<p>why would American be a reach, I heard its less hard to get into than Northeastern</p>

<p>ole,ole ole ole, oleee, oleee</p>
