I got accepted into SHU But not for the major i wanted. I want to major in accounting in the stillman school of business but according to the admissions staff i missed the cutoff by .01 gpa and 2 questions on the sat. So i argued my case and they resent the application to the admission staff. I found out that when they calculate gpa they take the main five courses but however they didn't take a look at my first quarter grades for senior year. Overall my gpa with the 5 classes is a 2.89 and i just got a b- in ap calc i got a b in physics an a in world religions a b- in english i got an a+ in gym and i got a solid 95 in comprehensive business technology

I would keep working with them...chances are somebody will decide not to attend or they may get a drop in applications like a lot of schools and they will take you. Good luck.
what does drop in applications mean and also first quarter my gpa was around 91 and this quarter my gpa is aimed around 92-93. I'm gonna hope to send it in, in hope that seton hall accepts me to there business program
I have not read that there was a drop in applications this year at Seton Hall. Last year, there was a huge increase in applicants. Does anyone have any information on this?
