<p>My application decision got delayed until the march date.<br>
I'm very active in sports- Varsity Football - Varsity Track and Field
I do a lot of community service hours and mission trips with my church
I have a 4.2 gpa, but only a 21 ACT :(</p>
<p>What ACT score would I have to get to be accepted at Florida State with these other stats</p>
<p>What about the Summer term? if my act isn't good enough will they automatically admit me for the summer term?? </p>
<p>help! please</p>
<p>DEFINITELY, you need to bring-up your ACT score and your goal should be in the range of 26-28. Strive for a 28 and at minimum, a 26. Also, try the SAT test, as this type of achievement testing may be more in line with your testing habits.
Also, if I were an admissions officer, Id also be hesitant to enroll an applicant with a GPA of 4.2 and with an SAT of 21. These two scores together are a perfect example of grade inflation in this country.</p>
<p>Your ACT needs to be brought up a couple of points- I’d aim for at minimum a 24 or so, although anything higher is definitely going to help you even more. A 26-28 would be a great goal to aim for, but I’m not sure that it’s really all that likely for you to be able to raise your ACT scores by 5-7 points.</p>
<p>And no, you wouldn’t be automatically admitted for summer. FSU considers anyone that is not accepted for fall as a summer applicant automatically, so they don’t feel that you’d be suited to starting in either semester.</p>
