Hi there, I am a current student at MSU and I think that your chances are decent but the only concern is your SAT as it is at the very low end of what they typically accept. However, I think your other credentials should outweigh that. As for admissions, it is rolling admissions so they are continuously looking over applications. I applied in early October and got accepted early December so it could take a little while but you should be fun! Best of luck and go green!

There was a kid from my school that got in with a 3.0. You’ll be fine. MSU lets some bricks in.
