<p>I realize I am most likely a reach but I just want to know where I stand.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.7 weighted, 2.95 unweighted
ACT: 30 ( English:30, Reading: 32, Math: 29, Science:30, Writing, 9)</p>

<p>I attend a competitive public high school in Illinois, and have taken all accelerated course work.</p>

<p>I am interested in majoring in Advertising/Public Relations.</p>

<p>You’re in.</p>

3

<p>thanks, bump</p>

4

<p>you have a very good chance of getting in, because Pennstate considers only weighted gpa in their admission decisions.</p>

5

<p>Sorry to invade your thread, but does that mean if you have above a 4.0 weighted GPA, you’re basically in?</p>

6

<p>Thanks guys for the help, and I’d say as long as you have that and a decent SAT/ACT then you should be fine. There is a bubble chart that they use for admissions I believe.</p>

7

<p>Yeah I’ve seen that bubble chart. I got a 1940 on my second SAT in June…I’m not sure if I should retake it or not :/</p>

8

<p>1940 should be good enough to get you into PSU-UP with the GPA you have.</p>

9

<p>Not to be mean or anything. But your weighted GPA means ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. The only thing they will look for is your unweighted which you said was a 2.95. That is a very low score (I’m not trying to hurt you, but i’m telling the truth). However, you do have a decent ACT score, so if its anything that might get you in, it would be your ACT score.</p>
