Hello! So I’m a current cc student in Illinois, and I’ve always had NYU as number one on my list for schools I wanted to go, but I didn’t really know if I had that much of a chance at getting in due to my (very poor) high school GPA and test scores. Ended my senior year with a 2.0, and scored at 980 on the SAT, these due to personal issues. I managed to graduate a semester early of high school and I am currently ending my first semester at a community college.
Stats
Hispanic First gen.
Intended Major: Political Science
Highschool GPA: 2.0
College GPA:3.96
SAT: 980 (doesn’t really matter since I’m not submitting)
Dean’s List
PTK member
Part of community college student senate
Involvement in campaigns, phone banking, voter registration help.
I’m wondering if there’s anything I can do to increase my chances of actually getting accepted, or if I have a solid shot already. Thank you guys!!
