<p>if u lived in new york you would've of been eligible for HEOP(higher education opportunity program) if you were low income.(program for low income,decent SAT score students from NY. Basically because of your situation, you are academically disadvantage... thus bringing the program.) I was accepted through HEOP early decision. 3.3 GPA 1600 SAT(M+CR)</p>

<p>Which probably would've accepted you. but since you are from new jersey you will be in the pool with the regular competitive applicants. So I think you will be good to go if you bring your ACT to 28+ or your SAT to 1700+(m+cr)</p>

<p>your scores are low but ec's are great. just study and retake.</p>
