Do I still have good chances at going to out of state universities?
2017-06-06 7:39 pm
I am currently a sophomore in high school and I'm soon going to be a junior as the year is ending. I'm extremely discouraged because my GPA isn't as high as I'd like for it to be. Last year I was very careless and ended with a 2.6 cumulative. My grades since then have improved a lot and I even got a presidents award for recognition. Despite the fact that I am improving my GPA is still low and I'll probably end high school with a 3.4-3.6 at the highest. I take some honors and AP classes as well as standard and I've been recommended for them so I'm not taking all advanced classes or trying to overachieve. But I was wondering, if I have a good SAT score such as a 1400 and up, would I be eligiable for out of state universities? I want to go somewhere fun where I can get the college experience but also with good education.. I want to be a lawyer so I'd need to get into a good law school afterwards.. I also do extracurriculars. Cheerleading, boxing, book club, junior class board, (will do senior class board when the time comes) and another club that does fundraising. Any opinions?

It depends on what schools you're looking out. Just because something is out-of-state doesn't mean that it's competitive. If you're looking at like, Ivy's or other prestigious schools like that, you'll have some trouble considering your GPA. But most state schools and even many private schools should be totally fine so long as you work on keeping your GPA up and do well on the SAT/ACT (which, by the way, I recommend taking both).

There are lots of out of state schools that would accept you. Your problem is that it is very expensive to go out of state. Do your parents have enough money to afford it?

Most universities will want your unweighted cumulative GPA at the end of junior year to apply.
Many state universities would accept a GPA of 3.0.
But why go out of state to a public university and pay out of state tuition rates? Check into public state universities in your state first.
