<p>Hey guys, I'm a brazilian student who just graduated high school and intend on going to the US for college. I have an 1800 on my SAT (CR 620, MATH 640, W 540) and a 101 on my TOEFL. I don't know how much my GPA is because we use different grading systems. I'm applying for these universities:</p>

<p>University of Georgia
University of South Carolina - Columbia
UMass Amherst
NC State
Rutgers</p>

<p>Do I have any chance of being accepted? How high does my GPA have to be?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance..</p>

<p>Your SAT is a bit low, but for the schools you’re looking at may be right in range.
Different schools have different requirements for TOEFL, look on their websites to see what scores they expect from international students.
You definitely have a chance of being accepted–many schools love international students to add diversity to their campus.</p>

<p>Good luck! :D</p>
