<p>6.6 GPA? I’m thinkin hardcore grade inflation</p>

<p>Schools: RPI, PSU, RUTGERS, RIT, DREXEL (Mechanical Engineering)</p>

<p>I see that you’re instate for Rutgers. You have a good chance of getting accepted to many if not all of these schools. Are you concerned that you’ll get rejected to all of them?</p>

<p>Can you afford the OOS cost of Penn State, which will be over $40k per year next fall? Can you afford the other schools?</p>

<p>hey, i applied to rutgers, rpi, drexel, tcnj and nyu-p. I got accepted to all of them except RPI. Still waiting for RPI. My stats: 750 M, 590 W, 540R. GPA: 3.98/4. I am sure that u will get accepted to drexel, ru and rit.</p>

<p>oh lol our grading systems seems to be very unique. For clarification its a 6.6/7 scale. I haven’t received admission notification from Penn State yet but hopefully I will be able to qualify for their various scholarships. I’m primarily concerned with RPI as it is my top choice. I won the medal last year but that does not guarantee my acceptance. Thanks for the posts.</p>
