<p>I think you have a good shot of getting in, did you take the ACTs?</p>

3

<p>No i didnt. Down here most kids dont take the ACT. i only know of one person who has. i guess i probably should have tho, but i didnt think about applying to MSU till november which was long after my SATs</p>

<p>I'd say you have a solid shot at MSU, but it will be significantly better if you can bring the GPA up to the top half of your class.</p>

<p>I'd honestly say border. I know a few people who are getting rejected with a less than 3.3 GPA, even with high ACTs/SATs. Like ACTs in the 33/34 range. I think they're starting to get more focused on GPAs. </p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Yeah I don't know I'm hoping that legacy and being from north Carolina will help out.</p>
