Chances for Rutgers New Brunswick? (In-state, Low GPA, rising student with a story)

<p>Hi all, thank you for reading in advance! I appreciate it :)</p>

<p>I'm Asian/American and I'm in state, I've been born and raised in NJ and I'm going into my senior year.
Highschool is a Blue Ribbon School, many kids end up going to IVY and is a great public school. Many get accepted to Rutgers.
GPA: 2.8, expecting to bump up a bit in senior year when school starts. Grades are rising throughout the years. No honors/AP.
SAT: 1710 (Reading: 520, Math: 570, Writing: 650)
Clubs: Not so many, around 5 or so, expecting to do MANY clubs senior year.</p>

<p>Varsity swimmer for 3 years, will be varsity swim team captain next year.
Track runner/thrower for 2 years.
I've done missionary trips for Guatemala, volunteering throughout my town for town events as well as many church events. I do bible readings as well during mass. </p>

<p>Notable info: Grew up single parent household (Father) for my whole life, my Grandmother took my spot as my mother. She had recently passed this year impacting my life a lot, about a week before my mid-term exams at the same time a week before my first SAT (I got a 1550). My dad was a working single parent, working late nights as I cooked my own dinners and regulated time for myself to study on my own. </p>

<p>Major: Computer Science</p>

<p>Essay: Was helped written by my essay editor helper, mentions small things about my grandmother but mostly focuses on what I want to contribute to the campus, it's very short and sweet and to the point. Talks about optimism and remaining positive whilst tackling tough situations. </p>

<p>Rutgers is really my dream school and my #1 on my list, and I want to do everything I can to get in.
I thank those who take the time to help chance me, best of luck to you all applying too!</p>

<p>I honestly don’t know.
But for your sake I hope everything goes well.
I plan to be a comp sci major too</p>

<p>Thank you! Anyone else?</p>

did you get in??
