I applied to Ohio State in December and got deferred today, with a GPA of 3.38 and an SAT of 1940 OLD and 1330 NEW, I’ve taken around 6 AP classes and ended my last semester with a 4.1 (Weighted), I just wanted to know what you guys are thinking my admissions chances are, I am applying to engineering. Most of the classes that I got bad grades in were Spanish and Freshman English. Ohio State is my top school and I was wondering if there is any hope for me. Thank you!
Are you in-state? If so, you could go to a branch campus and then transfer in.
Your cumulative GPA seems a bit low. You also didn’t mention your class rank. Since you were deferred, definitely send in an updated transcript ASAP. Having more material to evaluate you with seems like it would benefit you in this case, since you mention you had a higher GPA last semester.
