Chances of getting into college

Question

What are my chances of getting into college if my GPA is about .5 lower than the college's average but my SAT score is about 200 points higher.

Answer 1

chances of going to college:  very Good ,if not great, for any community college.  If you want to get into a prestige uni with lots of name recognition, then your GPA needs to be up there to be competitive.  Remember, thousands of students apply for the same school that you want to get into from all over the world... so you need to give the school a good reason to pick you versus the next guy.

If your grade's not that impressive, I'd advise you to enroll in any 2 year comm.college first, then transfer to a 4 year uni.

You'll almost be enrolleld if you apply as a transfer ... since you're competing with less students...  also, you've demonstrated to the school that you have what it takes to handle university work (which is very different from HS)

good luck

Answer 2

Depends on the college. Ask them, not us. You do not even list the said college.

I still wish you the best of luck!
