What are my chances of getting into Cornish College of The Arts

I’ve been playing guitar for 7 years and I have been doing music ensembles for 4 (I’ve done over 15 ensembles). I went to Berklee College of Music’s Guitar Sessions Program as well as the 5 Week. I gig around the state. Academically this year I have been struggling but I did good last year until the third trimester of school as well as Eagle Term (a bunch of enrichtment classes) due to medication issues and I struggled my first trimester of my senior so far. I’m back on track but I just worry I won’t get accepted. I talked to my admissions counselor and she said that she will put those things her notes so when they look at my grades they know why those grades were bad. Eagle Term was based on attendance as well at the time too (which I’m going to call them in a bit and mention that my attendance last year was super spotty due to bullying).
My music teachers wrote lovely letters of recommendation which I think will help me out too. My essay wasn’t fantastic but I did the best I could to describe myself.
What is everyone else’s thoughts?

It’s an art school–I don’t think they care too much about grades. Years of guitar experience and a summer guitar program??? Don’t stress, I think you have a very good chance :slight_smile:

Thank you! They expect students to have a 2.5 gpa which I don’t know if I do.

But they were very understanding about the bullying issue.
