So i just got back my letter from Providence college and I got deferred… GPA of 3.45 and ACT of 27 ( although I did not send my later test score of 30) now I’m anxious if I will get into UMass Amherst which is more on the top of my list… I did send them my 30 on the ACT however. Thoughts? Also from a competitive high school and had a great upward trend in GPA as well as good EC’s
I got an email from umass amherst yesterday and was accepted. You could probably get in based because your act and gpa are both pretty good. Umass also has a high acceptance rate so that’s a plus. Also are you in Massachusetts or outside. Not sure if it makes a difference but I’m in California and got in.
Make sure Providence knows about your ACT 30
^^^Agree
UMASS should accept you. Did you apply there EA?
yes i applied EA and im in state. I also just sent them my 30 test score
@Simon527 what were your stats if you don’t mind me asking?
well @eop2017 I got a 33 on the act but have a 3.6 gpa (my weakness) along with wide array of activities and a pretty good essay.
i got into umass amherst! now i dont think providence will be an issue as I wasn’t that interested.
it all depends on the major, i know people who were deferred or declined for with a 32-35 ACT and 1470-1510 SAT, 4.0 uw, 5-6 APs going in for business and engineering. I got accepted for pre-med, 4.0 uw 25 ACT/ 1240 SAT w 4 AP classes
