Question about applying to college (undergrad) after a gap year.

Applying to College
1

Is the overall process the same?

If I re-apply to some schools that I didn’t get into this year (with more extra-curriculars/work experience/better essays), is there any possibility of me getting accepted?

Also, if my GPA went from a 3.52 to a 3.62 because I did well senior year, do colleges look at that? Or, do they only look at grades through junior year?

The process is the same.

VERY doubtful. They rejected you for a reason (which you probably don’t know). They will also have your old application so they will remember you. I would recommend a new set of schools.

They will look at your cum GPA so the full 3.62.
