UCI

Can I get into UCI with a 3.2 GPA, 34 act, killer essay, lots of ec’s

probablly not but crazier things have happened

@Falcons24 A friend of mine got in with a 3.0 gpa and 1500 sat. Anything can happen so keep your hopes high. Even if you don’t get in, it is not the end of the world. I’m sure you will find success at whatever college you attend. Good luck.

@tehemerald was your friend a recruited athlete

@BucketsUCSC Nope!

I’m sure there’s more to the story. I highly doubt that under normal circumstances, a student could have gotten into UCI with a 3.0 and a 1500

@BucketsUCSC Had a pal get into UCI with a 3.3 weighted GPA and a 1.4k SAT. Had taken only one AP and that was AP Chinese l0l.

like i said theres typically more to the story

UC’s do holistic review so having amazing EC’s, essays, special talent, disability, athletic recruit will all factor into the decision. These are the exceptions
