What are my chances of getting into my dream university?

Hi, I am now a senior at high school and I have a total GPA of 2.6 and a SAT score of 850. I know that they are both really low, but I have had medical and personal issues during my first 3 years of high school, and I have added those reasons in my personal essay in the application of Pace University. I have done really good so far in my senior year, I have a 3.4 GPA for my first semester. I have already applied to Pace University (NYC) and I am really nervous and anxious on whether or not I will be accepted, I am even losing sleep. I just want to know if I am lucky and have a chance of getting in or not?

Sat score is a little low. I’m sure they’ll take into account the improved gpa. best of luck

To be completely honest, your GPA and test scores make a lot of schools out of your reach. Pace is going to be rather difficult for you, though not impossible.

You might do better to go to a city college or community college for 2 years, build up your gpa, take the core classes you’ll need, and transfer.

did you get accepted?

No I didn’t :frowning:

I am sorry :frowning:

It’s okay. Eating some chocolate is bound to help.

True, I do feel better after 5 boxes of chocolates :slight_smile: . It’s okay, I know I have to deal with failure to succeed. I think I’m just going to a community college then transfer to a university.

The chances that your going to enter in your desire campus is, pursue it with the heart.

sorry :frowning: did you send them your mid year grades or maybe try setting up an interview
?

Well I don’t live in New York so I couldn’t set up an interview, and they asked for my transcript 9th-12th grade.
