The "I Got in without a 3.7+ GPA" club

<p>Level 5: 3.68 at the time of application. (Though my school uses an unweighted grade system out of 100, not out of 4.0 so it was 92 out of 100). Got in to Penn.</p>

<p>Its kind of sad how tone deaf people are on this forum.</p>

<p>DD has combined SATs of 1590 (but she’s not English mother tongue ad spent first three years of high school in an art school in Venice, Italy).</p>

<p>GPA level 4 until senior year (but senior year grades are much better)</p>

<p>ECs average</p>

<p>Kick ass essay and great recommendations</p>

<p>Applied RD to:</p>

<p>Cornell (legacy)
SUNY Purchase
SUNY Geneseo
CUNY Baruch and Hunter</p>

<p>this thread is cool to read…glad to know we dont have to have like 6.9 on a 4.0 scale</p>

<p>I am joining so I can hear what happens with the new group waiting for acceptances for Fall 2012. Good luck everyone.</p>

<p>Level 5, 3.5 exactly haha.</p>

<p>Accepted to W&M OOS; 2340 SAT and 4 AP test fives will do that for one, I suppose.</p>

<p>Shameless bump. More of us low-GPA kids need a morale booster :smiley: hopefully I’ll be able to add my own list to this thread 3 months from now</p>

<p>Gah, I’ve missed joining this club by just a few decimals. XD </p>

<p>Good luck to everyone!</p>

<p>Reasons: I go to a competitive private school that practices pretty intense grade deflation. A lot of kids with my academic profile from my school could probably make it into almost all school ranked below the top 25 National Universities.</p>

<p>3.3 GPA 29 ACT
Got into Loyola-New Orleans
Univ of Portland
UAB
Univ of Alabama- Most likely will attend, unless one of my uber reaches comes through w/ lots of $$$ in April.
