<p>Clemson admission low gpa high SAT/ACT
Hey everyone,</p>

<p>I really wanted to refrain from posting and asking about this but unfortunately I've been losing a lot of sleep over it lately.</p>

<p>I am currently junior.</p>

<p>The problem that I have is that I have a very low GPA while having high SAT/ACT scores.
I sincerely hope that my test scores will make up for my bad gpa but I'm really worried now because half the people say it will while the other half I asked says gpa is much more important.</p>

<p>I predict my gpa will increase to around a 3.6 average by next year since I will be getting my act together.
Clemson has always been my dream school and I really want to get in. I will be absolutely devastated if I don't make it.
& does writing a great essay help along with the fact Clemson looks at alumni relation and several family members attended ?
Stats:
In-State
Current gpa: 3.4 UW (3.5-3.6 avg by next year)</p>

<p>SAT:2320
PSAT:224
ACT:32</p>

<p>BEEXTREMELY HONEST/BLUNT</p>

<p>I don’t know if things have changed since last year but I have a friend who goes there now had like a 3.4 and maybe a 1800 at the very highest on the SAT and he’s out of state. Not much ECs, a good athlete but doesn’t play sports there now. I’m sure you’ll be fine</p>

<p>You have absolutely nothing to worry about. You will probably get a big scholarship and most likely a Calhoun Honors Invitation if you have taken AP classes.</p>

<p>^I don’t think she will get an invite to the Calhoun Honors College or a big scholarships (you’re really underestimating the students that get into Clemson haha) but I think if her grades are where she thinks they will be she should have nothing to worry about</p>

<p>As most said, you’ll have no problem at all. </p>

<p>Why not apply to some matches/reaches?</p>

6

<p>Regular Clemson: Safety</p>

<p>Your reach would be Calhoun @ Clemson…</p>

<p>You’re fine! That SAT will get you anywhere in SC. Apply to some reaches. Northwestern, UVA. Also look into University of Florida.
