<p>My essays were pretty strong and I did an interview</p>

<p>Idk if it matters but I’m an African-American female and I applied for the Black Alumni Scholarship.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Your SAT and GPA are on the low-end, but you are a URM and have strong EC’s. I think you have a chance. Good luck and keep your eyes open for an envelope from LA next week.</p>

<p>I think being a minority will help you a lot in this situation, but at the same time your SAT/GPA is still pretty low. I think you probably stand a good chance at spring admissions, if I had to guess. Your EC’s are pretty good, and if you managed to impress admissions with good essays it might turn out for the better :slight_smile: good luck!</p>

<p>Thanks for the input :)</p>

<p>I think u have a very good chance. Your weighted GPA is probably a lot higher, too…</p>

<p>Best of luck!</p>

<p>Thank you! My school doesnt weigh gpas or rank</p>
