Hey Everyone!
My name is nicole and I have a 3.49 GPA with a 25 on the ACT. I am also senior class president, a two year student council representative, played 2 varsity sports, and was captain for one of the sports for my junior and senior year. I have been deferred from MSU and am waiting to hear back from them. They asked to see my second semester grades and I got a 3.9 last semester. What are the chances I will get in? Is there anything you suggest I do to increase my chances of getting in?
do you know anyone with these credentials that didn’t eventually get in?
Let the admissions office know through your GC that you will attend if admitted and are very interested. (assuming that is true)
TooOld4School, hey! I emailed one of the admissions officers through his personal email, and he never replied. Do you think I should also have my counselor contact them as well?
The impact is greater when it comes from the GC. I’d ask him/her to do it for you. The GC may have a relationship with MSU admissions that may help a bit especially if you are in-state. If you know any persons of note (e.g. politicians) or big donors (possibly through your coaches - or you coaches) ask them to put a call in for you too. Best of luck!
