<p>So after reading the main "Where were you accepted" thread, I became quite tired of reading all the applicants attending Harvard, Stanford, Yale etc. Not because I was jealous, but because the majority of people are nowhere near those applicants levels and it's not helpful for me who has closer to a B+/A- average to only read acceptances of the most elite students in the country. So for the people who fit around the GPA and stats shown above where were you accepted/rejected? If that gpa/score range looks like you please share, or if your applying to schools while having similar stats, share the schools your applying to.
Lets get this thread going!</p>
<p>I'm applying to Northeastern, BU, NYU, Umass Amherst, Ithaca College, Emerson College, Penn State, Umaryland, American U, UC Berkeley, Hofstra and UC Boulder for Comm/Business. 3.4 GPA and 27 ACT (30 superscore)</p>

<p>just so you know, the reason there aren’t many threads on average students is because the tier of colleges that they are accepted to do so on a mainly numerical basis, so it’s very easy to figure out one’s chances just by checking their mid 50% SAT and GPA ranges through naviance/school’s website</p>
<p>@foolish I understand what you mean but considering I’m right on the boardline between top schools and average schools with a 3.4, it helps me to see where people have been accepted/rejected to in order to help me better gage my acceptance chances to certain schools. Yes, naviance is a fantastic tool to compare oneself to other applicants from your school but a lot of aspects are not taken into account like super-scored tests, ECs, high school rigor, etc. that it really helps to see the various colleges that students were accepted into with stats around mine</p>
<p>1500-2000 and 3.0-3.5 are VERY big ranges. In fact, if you look at data, 1500 is typical and anything above it is above average. 1800s and 1900s are far from typical seeing that they are in the 80th to 89th percentile of test takers. Being better than 80% of people who took the exam is hardly typical. You should make a thread with a narrower range.</p>
<p>foolish that’s ridiculous! LAC are known for paying less attention to the numbers and more attention to the fit of the applicant! The fit includes interest in the school, major interested in, extra curricular interests, students location vs college location, and yes, ability to pay. So many non-numerical things. Many don’t even require standardized tests like SAT or ACT. State schools and large universities might be a numbers game but not most LAC.</p>
for anyone who’s wondering these were my admission results with these stats aside from a big test score bump on my SAT from 1720 to 2040
3.4 UW, 2040 SAT, Not a lot of APs but great essay and extracurriculars.
ACCEPTED EARLY ACTIONS:
UVM (12k a year)
Emerson College
Ithaca College - Parks School of Communication (12k a year)
Umass Amherst - Isenberg School of Management

American University
REJECTIONS
Northeastern - EA
University of Maryland, College Park - EA
Boston University - RD
New York University - RD
Still waiting on University of Miami, but not looking too hopeful Haven’t got deferred or waitlisted yet, just straight answers which I guess is sort of a good thing besides that my rejections were all at the top of my list. Oh well, I think I have some good options and so does anyone within this grade range. Currently between Syracuse, Umass and America as of right now but I still have to do some visits.
