<p>Hi…can someone help me evaluate my chances for BU? MY gpa is horribly low, and I don’t know how much my GPA will be factored into decisions. Also, if I were to get in, would I be eligible for any merit-based aid?</p>
<p>GPA: 3.2UW, 3.4W (roughly)
SAT: 1360
SATII: 700/660/710
Good extracurriculars, mediocre teacher rec, great counselor rec, pretty good essays (in the opinion of those who have read them).
I’m from california and I’m applying to CAS.</p>
<p>Have you taken the most rigorous curriculum at your HS? That's a huge factor.</p>
<p>i've taken 7 APs total (3 junior year, 4 senior year) and several honors classes (1 freshman year, 3 sophomore year) but my school offers like 20+ AP class options.</p>
<p>I think you'll get merit aid, but I don't know how much. S was awarded a University Scholarship ($15K) but he applied ED, and priority for those awards is given to ED candidates.</p>
<p>thanks for the response =)
how about getting into the school in the first place though? Do I need to worry about that?</p>
<p>i got in ED and my gpa was about the same and my sat score was only a 1310 so i think you have a good chance,</p>
