Hi, I’m hoping to apply early action for Fall 2018 and I was wondering what my chances were. I want to go into Writing, Literature, and Publishing program.
GPA from sophomore year up: 4.36 (weighted)
GPA freshmen year: 3.73 ( I think. Does Emerson care about freshmen year, some schools don’t?)
I go to a small school 80-100 full time students, so there basically aren’t any clubs.
My school also does not offer AP classes, but it does offer honors courses.
I’ve taken Honors English 10 & 11 taking Honors English 12. I have also take Honors World History and Honors US History
SAT: 1160 ( to be updated, as I have just taken it again)
I’ve volunteered as a camp counselor and I am working on self-publishing a collection of poetry I’ve written.
i think you have a pretty good chance! although your sat score is a bit low for emerson at the moment, emerson does have the option of going test-optional if you want to do that. your gpa is really strong. also, side note, but i’m applying for writing, literature, & publishing too!
I know this is from like a long time ago, but I raised my SAT score and I got in Early Action! Wbu?
Great news @nikster ! What was your new score? It might help kids next year to know:). Congrats!
@HRSMom My new score was a 1230 and I ended up getting a $6000 a year scholarship!!
Awesome @nikster . So happy for you! Are you going then?
@HRSMom Thank you so much! It’s my first choice so I’m hoping I get to go, but I still have to figure out if my family and I can afford the tuition. *Fingers crossed"!
