<p>Wanting to major in journalism. Thanks!</p>
<p>I think that you will most likely get in. Your grades/rank are great, you have 4 APs, and your SAT is only slightly below average for GWU. Your EC's are very good also. So, I'd say you are in, however, you will probably not get into the school of media and public affairs. It's extremely competitive and has an acceptance rate in the teens-but they would just put you in CAS first.</p>
<p>True about SMPA. I got into GW but was turned away from SMPA with a 1420, but my GPA was not as high as yours.</p>
<p>Well, the thing about my relatively low SAT score is I did really well in the verbal, but poorly in the math section. So hopefully, the 730 verbal score will count more than the only 1300 composite score, when it comes to getting into the SMPA.</p>
