<p>Based on my son’s experience, your son has a good chance at Keene and Champlain.
Hampshire is a reach but possible. Your son’s downward trend in his GPA junior may present an obstacle. (You posted in February that he had a 2.94 but now has a 2.70).
Honestly, as far as being accepted to Emerson for film, I don’t believe that is a realistic possibility. Students with much higher GPAs (yes, my son was one of them) and great applications otherwise are routinely rejected.
My best advice to you , is to speak to an Emerson admission counselor regarding your son’s chances of acceptance considering his GPA.</p>
