I have a 3.295 GPA, a below average SAT score of 960, and I’m in 7 clubs. I really want to go to VCU but my college specialist teacher said that its a good REACH college. On the other hand my friends say that VCU is really easy to get into. I just want to know so I wouldn’t have to get my hopes up for something I’m not gonna get into.
Since the 25% ile SAT score for VCU is 1070, yes, it would be a reach for you. Your chances of admission would increse if you could raise your SATscore, any chance you can retake? Is your gpa weighted or unweighted?
I’m taking my SATs again in 2 weeks and my GPA is weighted but it’s going to change after the first semester
Try to squeeze in some SAT practice before the test date, and keep your grades up to improve your chances at VCU. Good luck!!
