<p>I just recently graduated high school. Kenowa hills to be exact and i was wondering what are my chance of getting into concordia university in montreal ?
here are my stats (they ain't pretty):</p>
<p>-3.1 gpa senior year
-didn't take sat's or act's (bad mistake)
- 2.7 cumulative i believe
- to embarrassed for class rank....
-extra curricular activities include orchestra, debate, forensics, lots of music classes.... I did really well in all those classes b's or higher!</p>
<p>well, i think i'm pretty much screwed! is there anyway that i can salvage this? i want to be accepted in a great college! Not an Ivy league college! I want to hopefully be a linguist major and minor in french! I'm not going to community college! so don't suggest i go there please!!! </p>
<p>With your really lousy GPA (below 3) and no standardized tests, many colleges are out of your reach. I suggest your state college and possibly transfer after one year to the college that you want to attend. Make sure to do really well. Don't expect to attend a 'great college' with your mediocre high school academic performance. Prove to colleges that you can handle college level work. You should stop being stubborn and consider community colleges, take classes there for a couple of years, and earn high grades. Afterwards, apply to the college of your choice.</p>
<p>Note: I am not familiar with Concordia University in Montreal. Also, I assume you are currently living in the US.</p>
<p>condsidered it and applied for it and was admitted....but that's not what i want.
I have always wanted better but when i asked for it they always told me that it's too hard and just gave me classes that i wasn't interested in....my parents even told me that....now they're pushing for me to go to college and i'm pushing to go too</p>
<p>It might not be what you want but that may be your only option in the US.</p>
<p>I'm not trying to put you down, but even though you didn't get the classes you wanted or that you were interested in, you should have continued to think about your future and done the best you could in those classes. In reality, if they were easy for you then you really have no excuse as to why your record is so poor. (again, not trying to put you down, but that's how colleges will see it as well.)</p>
<p>Also, keep in mind that when you're looking for a job it won't matter that you attended a Community College first. It will matter where you get your degree from.</p>
<p>Not to mention that if you do go to a CC first you'll save a ton of money. Stop being stubborn and just attend a CC for a couple of years and do well, then you can pretty much go wherever you want (within reason).</p>
