Ohio University- Athens, OH (main campus)

<p>Help me please!</p>

<p>I'm Chinese, I'm average student, SAT score was a 1700 (1080 CR+M). My GPA is probably somewhere around a 2.8-3.1 (3.32-3.5 weighted). I do a lot of volunteering and I am active in two clubs at school. I also have two internships and a part-time job in the upcoming school year (my senior year). I've also worked in my junior year and recommendation letters shouldn't be a problem for me. </p>

<p>With that said, what do you guys think of my chances of getting into O.U.?</p>

<p>I don’t think you’ll have any trouble getting in. You’re in the middle range of scores for OU.</p>

<p>There are some departments, especially Media Arts and super-especially Journalism which are much more selective than OU in general. From the stats given above, these might be out of range for you.</p>

<p>For many departments, you should be in the running.</p>

<p>@ momof2incollege-- thanks!</p>

<p>@ digmedia-- What if i wanted to major in social work at OU?</p>

<p>dunno about that</p>

<p>Digmedia: Can you explain Mediarts to me. My DD is ionterested in graphic arts/design, and, we looked at OU as a possibility. Any insights?</p>

<p>bump…</p>

<p>shazwald… media arts at OU is more video/audio/broadcast based.</p>

<p>The viscom school might be a better match:
