College Search & Selection

<p>I am a Florida resident and have a 3.0 unweighted gpa and a 3.3 weighted gpa. I am in the IB program. I have EC's and hours. I just wanted to know what colleges I could get into. My main college is Michigan State University or UCF.</p>

<p>Thanks I look forward to the suggestions.</p>

<p>katliamom, on that first thread, we told him to start his own thread for more suggestions!
Those threads are parent threads, actually.</p>

<p>How about West Virginia University or University of Delaware? </p>

<p>Do you want a large “rah rah” type school where football & basketball teams (D1) appear on national television? </p>

<p>Rural, Suburban, Urban? Large, Medium or Small?
What can your family afford?</p>

5

<p>I would like a big school with D1 sports and things of tar nature that would be a dream.</p>

6

<p>So you would like to be a Tar Heel? Ouch…</p>

7

<p>That* nature. Typo sorry</p>

8

<p>Alabama, Kansas, KState amd Missouri. I think MSU will be tougher as gpa may need to be higher. Best of luck!</p>

9

<p>Can you afford the $35-55K for OOS colleges?</p>

10

<p>@erin’s dad
Yeah I can.</p>

11

<p>What are your test scores?</p>

12

<p>I got a 24 on my first ACT but I think I can get it up to a 26 to 27</p>

13

<p>With a 3.3 WGPA is your UW GPA <3.0?</p>

14

<p>A 3.0 is a slight reach for MSU. You may be able to get in with it but a 3.3 would be helpful. If you apply, you may get deferred and have to wait to see if you can get in. I would think OOS helps you for getting into MSU.</p>

<p>Don’t know much about UCF.</p>

<p>I think the 24 makes you automatically admitted to Kansas if you apply there. That has a big D1 sports atmosphere and OOS tuition is a little less than MSU.</p>

<p>@erin’s dad
My unweifhted gpa is a 3.0</p>

16

<p>Arizona State and Arizona would also be matches.</p>

17

<p>Do you know of any in the south or northeast</p>

18

<p>UMiss, Arkansas, Alabama-Birmingham. Not sure about NE.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot</p>
