I currently have a 3.82 GPA at a Illinois community college and am going to apply to both schools for an undergrad degree in geology. My B’s were in English 101, Sociology 101, and Geography 101. Are both schools competitive in the geosciences? Will I have a shot at getting in at either?
Can you afford the price (presumably out-of-state) for these schools? If not, then both would be reach or out-of-reach, since you would need to aim for sufficiently large scholarships (if they have any for out-of-state students), not just admission.
