Hi,
I am a High school senior. I have a 3.5 gpa, my essay was good for my application, I have a lot of activities, a recommendation letter, and top 25% of my class. My high school is very competitive. I’m 100 out of 517 in my class. I have 3 years of Spanish. I have not so great act score. Say I get a 23 or a 24 on my act I’m taking this Saturday. What are my chances?
Not to be harsh, but I think you’ll be directly admitted into a branch campus if you’re in-state based on the information you provided. The average ACT score for OSU is around a 29 or 30, and most are top 10-15% of their class.
I agree with the top top ohio state is significantly increasing their credentials to get in on a year by year basis. After this year the admissions rate at ohio state should be around 38% which is very competitive. I would say you have around a 20 % chance of direct admission to ohio state and i agree that if you are in state you will likely be admitted to a branch campus.
