will i get into umass lowell? umass amherst?

<p>gpa- 3.3
SAT-1500/2400 pretty bad
ACT-26</p>

<p>very involved in extra curriculars at school, devoted to basketball</p>

<p>i would rather go to amherst and i would be willing to apply early aciton/decision because i know i'm on the fence</p>

<p>i'm from massachusetts as well</p>

<p>What do you want to study? Lowell has some real flagship programs – engineering is stong as well as the health dept – like physical therapy – fantastic program. I think you’d be ok at Lowell… not sure at Amherst.</p>

<p>i want to major in information systems managment at umass business schools. also, i would be willing to transfer from umass lowell to umass amherst after a year of lowell</p>

<p>I would be surprised if you get rejected from Lowell. I’d say 95% chance of being accepted and a 5% chance of being waitlisted. Amherst is a bit tougher to get in. I’d say at least a 65% chance with those stats, but there are other factors to consider.</p>
