<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I can’t be certain but I can almost guarantee you will get in. I am currently a freshman in the Sargent College Human Physiology program and academically my high school credentials were similar. Additionally, I didn’t have as many extra-curriculars as you do now. Even if you aren’t accepted as an entering freshman, you can always apply to transfer into the college later.</p>

<p>It is a great program and I am sure you will get in. BU is a lot of work but also a lot of fun. Oh, and don’t forget your chemistry - it will come in handy freshman year.</p>

<p>Good luck,
Brendon</p>

<p>thanks so much for your response! i’m just a little nervous about my unweighted gpa. 3.45 seems a bit low, but it’s understandable because of the rigorous course load that I have taken over the past few years.</p>

<p>also, if i apply ED to SAR but don’t get in will they review me for CGS? or will I be bumped to regular admission and then reconsidered?</p>
