I think you have a good chance of getting to Baylor with your SAT and GPA. Your class rank is pretty low for you to receive to any academic scholarship from Baylor.

here is the link for the website for the academic scholarship to see if you are eligible

@DzJoker Best bet is to contact an admissions officer at Baylor directly. Based on what we heard at S19’s appt (who has similar stats to you), you have a good chance of getting in with significant aid…even more aid if you can get your sat score up. Again, contact the admissions officer :slight_smile:
