<p>So a 3.4 will get you into JMU?</p>
<p>I have 3.4 from ODU and i'm still nervous as hell about getting in.
I'm banking on my Eagle Scout and college radio exec board carrying me in or will those not get me as far as I think?</p>
<p>Dude, no doubt you're into JMU. I'm applying there also and I looked on collegeboard.com and it said that they accepted like 1700 out of 2200 transfers last year. The only problem with transferring to JMU is that getting housing is nearly impossible. Don't bank on living on campus dude. I'm definitely not. Good luck!</p>
<p>Sigh... I didn't apply to colleges in HS. I filled out one app to ODU, was sure I would get in and that was it. </p>
<p>This whole thing-- I see why kids stressed so much in HS when they started doing apps.</p>
<p>As far as housing-- my best friend is a freshman there, so I figured I'd get housing that way. I hope so atleast.</p>
<p>He said he applied to all of those as a freshman (and got rejected). Does having a previous application help your record, or hurt it? Obviously showing interest in the school</p>
<p>Brierliy, I am an Eagle scout too and I am hoping to transfer to JMU but for Spring 2007 semester. I am retaking one class I got a D in this semester. My GPA with the D is a 2.8. If I retake it and get an A, which I think is possible, it will put me up to about a 3.5. So I think it is best if I wait to apply to get that new grade on my record. Does anyone know if that D will hurt my chances even if I retake the class and get an A?</p>
