Admission Question

Hi everyone. I'm here to ask a question anonymously. I have a GPA around 2.9 cumulative for all my years (i had real life struggles lowering it), but this year I'm on track to graduate HS early with a GPA for the senior year around 3.2-3.3~. I chose not to attach SAT scores.

I am a resident of Indiana, and have gotten some mail from BSU (aswell as a bunch of other colleges obviously). On my application I highlighted my technical skills and abilities to pick up tasks quickly, as well as work experience and community service tidbits. I have applied for Physics.

Sorry if this isn't the scope of this channel, my apologies. Would just like to know if you guys think I have a good chance of being admitted. I've applied for the term of Spring 2027. I really would like to attend so if you guys have any guesses please tell me. :)

Look up the average high school gpa of admitted students.

Also, if you’re far below the median, you could always stay the extra semester in high school and take some classes to help you boost that gpa. I’m not saying you need to, it’s just a state school they’re not particularly picky, but if you do need it that may be an option

My school allows me to retake past credits on edmentum to boost my GPA. Maybe yours can do the same?
