<p>You sound like you have an excellent chance, and if you have already turned your application in (or you plan to do so by the 15th), then you may even get some merit aid.</p>

<p>thanks, im not sure about my gpa though. Hopefully they will look past it.</p>

<p>Yeah, I would say that is the weakest part of your application, unfortunately. But there's no reason to feel bad about it now, it's done. Work your butt off for the rest of the terms this year, I guess.</p>

<p>W&L does have a high average high school GPA, but it's nothing that should stop you from sending the application in.</p>
