Chances!!! OSU/PSU please help

<p>Hey guys i really would like to attend either Ohio State or Penn State please tell me what kind of shot you think I have at getting into both</p>

<p>3.45 Weight GPA
1870 SAT- 1270 2 score
3 year letterman varsity football all conference award winner
SADD member, Graphics club member, Hands for service member
2 years school baseball, varsity letter
I worked a job throughout high school
I got a 4 on both my AP Us History test and my AP gov tests
14 Honors/AP/CHS classes throughout highschool
I attend a competitive high school</p>

<p>You’re competitive (a little low for UP, you should have a 3.6 for that SAT score) but what’s your state? Because one of these two will be out of state and OOS costs are very high and not/rarely covered by financial aid since the point of admitting OOS students over In State students is to get their money. :slight_smile:
So you may well get in but be unable to attend because you wouldn’t have the money (and remember, you’re only allowed to borrow $5,500 yourself for your first year.)</p>

<p>I live in Pittsburgh, so Penn State would be in-state for me. I have looked into the National Buckeye Scholarship which requires you to be top 40% of your class and have a 1260 2 score and then grants you 12,000 a year for 4 years. From what ive heard almost all who are eligible get it</p>
