Hi there! I got an email from the IU admission office saying that I need to send my first marking period grades before they make a decision. I have a 30 ACT and a 3.2 GPA but have been taking challenging AP and honors classes since my freshmen year. I applied to the college of liberal arts and sciences to major in biology (Is that a difficult major to get in to?). Unfortunately my current highschool doesn’t send transcripts per quarter but per semester. IU wants to see my mid semester grades and my school cannot do that. Do I have a better chance in getting into IU if I re apply and change my major and make my essays stronger or if I just submit my 1st semester transcript at the beginning of January? Please help! IU is my dream school and I don’t know what to do
I don’t think that reapplying will help at all. I think that you should get in touch with the admissions office and explain the situation to them.
