Chances of getting into college...

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I was curious as to what my chances are like of me getting into college. I currently have a 2.9 GPA due to me not doing to well in a couple of classes but hopefully I can pull it up my 1st semester of my senior year. I go to a Charter school but I heard that this doesn't effect your admission...is this true?</p>

<p>Unfortunatley I was unable to take my SAT I test due to a mix up of some sort but I will be taking them in October. On the old PSAT I scored a 1270 if that means anything so hopefully the new and old are similar. I have taken only a few honors classes but I have work experience along with some volunteer work and I am also involved in sports.</p>

<p>Some colleges I was looking at were: Temple, Kansas University, Michigan State, Clark Atlanta University, and Morehouse.</p>

<p>I am an African American if that helps and I live in California. I appreciate any help. Is there anyone who was in a similar situation that is now in college? I also wasn't really interested in community college but instead just going straight to a 4 year University.</p>

<p>You might want to look at Pitzer College (<a href="http://www.pitzer.edu%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.pitzer.edu&lt;/a&gt;) , it's one of the Claremont Colleges. It might be a bit of a reach but I think you have a good chance. And being in the Claremont system you will be able to take classes at Pomona and the other Claremont College which are among the best.</p>
