Can i get into WVU with a subpar GPA?

Question

Ok i have a 2.8 GPA and i play varsity baseball. I dont take my SAT until September and im wondering what my chances are of getting accepted

Answer 1

i think you can get in as a student but probably wont get a basketball scholarship from them. WVU isnt that great of an academic school so you dont need a glowing transcript and high SAT scores to get in.  

Answer 2

not unless you can dominate every game in baseball with like 5 homeruns.....  

Answer 3

Without at least a 3.0, I wouldn't even apply.  The Big East's baseball programs get no ink, so you're not going to get a scholarship for that.

Answer 4

WVU is getting tougher to get into.. We are finally starting to do better in both academics and sports, and with the largest incoming amount of freshman in the schools history, these standards are going to continue to grow. However, you still have a chance of getting accepted into the college. This was taken directly from WVU's admissions page:

Minimum Requirements for Application Review

(meeting these requirements does not guarantee admission to the Morgantown campus)

West Virginia residents must have at least a 2.0 grade-point average and either a composite ACT score of 19 or a combined Math and Critical Reading SAT score of 910.

Nonresidents must have at least a 2.5 grade-point average and either a composite ACT score of 21 or a combined Math and Critical Reading SAT score of 990.
