I toured Clemson today and absolutely loved it but I’m slightly nervous I won’t get in. Can anyone chance me?
W-GPA: 3.82. Low, I know; however, my school does not allow students to take APs until junior year, and I’m now taking 3, so hopefully this should go way up.
I have yet to take the SAT or ACT, but will be taking them soon. (any tips??)
My school does not do class rank.
I know Clemson says they do not consider extra curriculars but: secretary of student council, secretary of Key Club, cross country and track runner (3 season athlete), yearbook staff member, Peer Relations program member.
Can anyone please give me my chances? Thank you all in advance for any feedback! Also, please note I am out of state.
Oh, I am also a member of the National Latin Honors Society. Thank you!
In state or OOS ? Are you a senior?
OOS. Junior!
Focus on GPA and standardized test scores. Take them early in Jr year so you can retake again if you need to. Clemson’s application opens August 1, and housing is based on application date. If you score well on your SAT or ACT and rank in the top 10% of your class, you’d be eligible for merit aid.
Thank you so much carolinamom2boys!
When you take your SAT and ACT tests , list Clemson as a choice to have your scores sent to and you’ll start hearing from them.
Okay I will!
