HS junior- NJ resident GPA: 3.71 ACT score:32 (will take again) Attend a competitive public high school. Plan to apply as English major. AP & honors classes. Weakness in weighted GPA was due to illness/hospitalization, missed a lot of school due to this. Grades bounced back this year. Next year will be taking 3 AP classes (one in English). Editor in chief of literary magazine, copy editor newspaper, captain color guard, on community environmental science commission, animal shelter volunteer, drama club, gay rights club, environmental club. A little nervous since tcnj has become more competitive, but guidance counselor thinks great fit and is very positive. chance me!
Seems reasonable to me! Have you looked at Naviance to see how students in your HS fared at TCNJ?
Also since English is not an impacted major (have too many people wanting to major in it like Biology or CS) then you have a good chance.
Thanks! That is what we were thinking. Yes did look on Naviance and it is a match.
