I just applied to DePaul. I have a weighted 2.8 gpa and a 24 ACT. I have two jobs, tons of volunteer work/extracurriculars. Do I have a chance at DePaul accepting me?
Your GPA is really lower than average, which is 3.56
I’ve heard the average GPA is so high because of the svhool of Music and the school of theater, which have a less than 10% acceptance rate. I’m applying for the college of Liberal Arts & ScienceSciences
Actually, Music and Theater both are super selective, but NOT on GPA, rather on talent for these two fields. The key elements for other majors/schools are course rigor, GPA, and SAT score. This makes DePaul a high match or low reach, since that 2.8 is weighted.
