College acceptence

derin11 · 04-07-2010, 06:13 PM

Hey guys, Im going to be applying to UCLA next year and want to know if they will take a 3.0 GPA. I'm a very well rounded person.

Any insight?

Thanks

You'll need more than that since you're out of state.

sjg111 · 04-07-2010, 06:25 PM

Is the 3.0 GPA weighted or unweighted? I'd recommend looking at this site:

'very well rounded' is pretty vague

Greeney · 04-07-2010, 06:32 PM

I doubt it with a boring thread like this.

LOL

but yeah, well-rounded is pretty vague, and getting in with 3.0 already is pretty tough, but since you're out of state, it'll be even harder. okay...not pretty tough, it's just straight up tough

The average gpa to UCLA freshman admits, which varies yearly, is around 3.7~3.85 ish I think along with extra curricular activities. You won't get in with a 3.0 unless you have majorly impressive awards/activities or you're going in as a sports or some other special invited admit. Or you know someone well within the school/admissions office.

I don't want to be a dick, but that's not a very good GPA in hs, imo. What school in Texas are you at? Private? What year are you? Try taking the PSAT if you're a junior. Try to be a national merit. Also try to do REALLY good on the sat/act.

Learning how to do research is going to benefit you at any school that you attend:

Barely. You could say the same about the basketball team this year too lol

jopa489 · 04-07-2010, 08:09 PM

I don't think your GPA is going to cut it, personally. Good luck though.

OOO · 04-07-2010, 08:23 PM

Dude you gonna need AT LEAST a 3.5 gpa. Also with this you will need a shit load of extra curricular activities. GL.

Its a 99.99% you wont make it, sorry but it's the truth.

Fall 2009's Average accepted GPA for HS Seniors to UCLA was 4.15.

Bimmer Nerd · 04-07-2010, 09:30 PM

My friend just got denied from UCLA (he had well above 3.8 if i remember correctly).

JayKay335i · 04-07-2010, 09:50 PM
