I just submitted my application to FAU (early for fall 2016 semester) and I was wondering if I have a chance of getting in.
My GPA is 2.8 and weighted is 3.1.
My SAT score was 1510 and ACT, 21.
I have taken mainly honors courses and a few AP courses, all of which I have passed with A’s and B’s except for English honors last year (I got C’s the first few quarters). My GPA dropped because of math lol.
If I am not accepted, what other public universities in the state of Florida would you recommend me to apply for?
@x11111 What course of study were you planning on pursuing?
Business. Is that a good program there & does that mean I have a higher chance of being accepted?
You are close to the edge . . . FAU has been trying very hard to raise their stats and their profile. My son dual enrolls there and we live nearby. It’s a nice campus. I don’t think it’s impossible for you to get in, but did you consider applying for the summer session, i.e., Summer 2016? It looks like the mid 50% stats were a smidge lower for Summer 2015 than Fall 2015.

What area of Florida do you live in? Have you looked at UWF?
@x11111 your GPA and scores are very near the minimum accepted at many of the universities. Florida Gulf Coast University, Florida International University and Florida SouthWestern State College could perhaps be options.
