Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Applied to Rutgers NB School of Arts and Sciences on October 14th and I've yet to hear anything back yet. I'm getting a bit nervous as many of my friends who applied later than myself have heard back already</p>

<p>Stats:
3.0 GPA (Cumulative 4.0 scale)
Medical excuse for horrid sophomore year GPA (Tuberculosis Diagnosis Soph year)
Upward grade trend: 2.1 Sophomore year GPA, 3.5 Junior Year GPA unweighted
450 Volunteer hours at local hospital
LGBTQ/Atheism Activist
Great Essay on embracing my homosexuality and going from being morbidly obese to fit. Also exemplified the fact that I'm going to use my experience to help others in my essay. And made sure to stress how much I changed between my soph and junior year; going from a 2.1 GPA to a 3.5, coming down from 220lb. to 170lb., coming to terms with being gay, volunteer work, etc.)
1620/2400 SAT (550 CR, 540 WR, 530 MATH)
10 Honors/1 AP
Also African-American and in-state if that helps</p>

<p>In State RU or out of state …if instate than match </p>

5

<p>I’m instate yeah. It’s a competitive public high school. Class Rank: Middle 50%</p>

<p>@Wizard09‌ You don’t think my 3.0 GPA might hurt me more? RU NB middle 50% has a GPA range of 3.5-4.0. Their SAT range for the middle 50% is 1710-2010. </p>

7

<p>Well your gpa will hurt you to. What are you majoring in?</p>

8

<p>@Wizard09‌ English with a concentration in Journalistic Writing. Major isn’t a factor with RU though, it’s the school you apply to within the University that matters. I applied to their School of Arts & Sciences which is the least competitive.</p>
