Kelley Standard Admit Chances (Opinions Wanted)

I have a friend that applied for Kelley admission this semester (3rd semester on campus) and here are his following grades.

BUS-A 100 B+
ECON-E 201 C+
BUS-C 104 A-
BUS-T 175 B+
BUS-T 275 A
BUS-K 201 A-
BUS-K 303 A-
BUS-C 204 B+
STAT-S 301 B-
BUS-L 201 Transfer Credit
ECON-E 202 Transfer Credit
ENG-W 131 Transfer Credit
MATH-M 118 Transfer Credit
MATH-M 119 Transfer Credit

All other courses that he has taken have been greater than a B+ and GPA is in the 3.58-3.60 range.

I told him that I like his chances but C+ in ECON-E 201 and B- in STAT-S 301 are obviously troublesome. He only has five (5) I-Core courses to take (BUS-A 201, BUS-A 202, BUS-G 202, BUS-D 270, BUS-D 271).

All thoughts are most appreciated!

C+ and B- may not qualify for automatic standard admission. BUT on the right side of the same web page, it says admissions committee will review other non-academic things in their admission consideration, if application does not meet automatic admission. Strong leadership may help.

Copied from IU site.
“If your application does not meet automatic admission criteria, the admissions committee will review all other materials provided in your application, including but not limited to: extracurricular activities, community service and any work experience. Academic performance will weigh most heavily in the decision.”

If I apply to Kelley now and meet all the criteria do I still have to petition?

@Physmd , Application deadline for standard admission - “Applications for admission will be accepted September 8 – November 1, 2017 for spring 2018 standard admission.”

Freshmen fall 2018 direction admission deadline - November 1, 2017

Petition for direct admission can be made under one or more of following conditions.

(copied from site)
"Applying after November 1? Don’t have the required GPA or test score? We want to consider you for direct admission through petition. "

@Physmd yes
