<p>GPA
3.72? 3.78? (something in the 3.7's)</p>

<p>I want to major in visual arts and I have been working on ball jointed dolls for the past 8 months and it's almost finished.
I want to submit this as my supplementary material.</p>

<p>One problem is that cuz our school doesn't offer AP or IB programs,
I don't have any high class scores.</p>

<p>Are my chances really low? </p>

<p>+) recommendation letters are good.</p>

<p>^^ I take it you are not recruitable for fencing? Normally, a pretty big hook if you’re good.</p>

<p>If you are not recruitable for fencing…your GPA is a little low by Princeton’s standards especially if you are Asian-American or worse international Asian…where the competition is the worst.</p>

<p>Princeton wants artists. Give it a shot. Make sure your Arts Supplement and recommendations are stellar and good luck!</p>
