<p>I'm a sophmore at a University, and want to get into University of Pittsburg (main campus).
SAT
530 Reading
490 Math
470 Writing</p>

<p>High school GPA 3.0</p>

<p>Two semesters at a University with a 3.6 average, also I was able to maintain this GPA while taking care of my dad, (now deceased). I am interested in applying to the biology major (rolling admissions).</p>

<p>Also I have taken 30 credits and amoung the courses was: Micro Economics (3.5), Statistics (3.0), Remedial General Chem (4.0), Speech (3.0), History (4.0), Music (4.0), and other general ed requirements.</p>

<p>I was accepted to Iowa's honors English program; Ohio University: Columbus; and Scranton University. Should I include that in the personal statement?</p>

<p>I want to apply for fall 09 but may try for the spring because its so late. </p>

<p>bcarvings, I’d apply to University of Pittsburgh if I were you, but I wouldn’t mention being accepted to any other university in your personal statement. What degree are you interested in?</p>

<p>I wouldn’t know your chances, but by not applying you definitely won’t be accepted. In your personal essay you may want to mention how you took care of your father and maintained a 3.6 GPA and how this loss influenced you as an individual (by the way I’m sorry to hear about your loss).</p>
