<p>I’m sure my chances aren’t great, but I think there is still a chance. What do you guys think?</p>

<p>I agree - no safety, but you've got a chance. I would play up your ECs since it seems like you're involved and passionate. What's the deal with the grades? Have they been consistent, or rising over the years? If it's the latter, you can mention that.</p>

<p>EDIT: Oh, I also just saw you're a senior. Have you already applied?</p>

<p>Yeah I applied a few weeks ago with no decision yet. And yes, I am hoping that my ECs will get me in. I also learned that if I get denied, I can apply as a transfer student from COTC which will increase my chances. As for my grades, they have been rather consistent and it is just year that they are rising significantly. A little too late I fear.</p>

<p>Well, best of luck and be sure to let us know!</p>

<p>I doubt you'll be rejected, but just in case: many students who are rejected also opt to attend a regional OSU campus. If you really want to attend OSU, this is a good choice. As I understand, classes transfer well and it's easy to transfer to main campus.</p>

<p>Haha yes, I know all about OSU-Nerk</p>
