<p>Hey Guys,</p>

<p>I am about to graduate and I'm applying for grad school I was wondering if I should even bother applying to UCSF's MS in Global Health program. I fulfill their basic requirements but I know that UCSF is very competitive. My GPA is low because I got some bad grades my sophomore year. Here are my stats:</p>

<p>Major: Anthropology/Public Health
Cumulative GPA: 3.27
Major GPA: 3.56
I have two years of research experience in public health
I have professor willing to write me very good letters of recommendation
I’ve written two published journal articles
I’ve also written an article on water quality for a local newspaper. </p>

<p>My GPA is low because I’ve taken a lot of natural science courses that most Anthropology majors haven’t. Do you think I even have a shot a UCSF?</p>
