Can I get in to Boston University ED1 [international, 3.59 GPA, international affairs]

BU’s ED admit rate is 28% (don’t know if that is significantly skewed by athletes)

profile of entering freshman class according to CDS:

4.0 GPA: 41%

3.75-3.99 GPA: 37%

3.50-3.74% GPA: 22%

This is the lowest range they have admits for. The middle 50 according to their website is 3.90-4.00%.

So on the face of it, especially without a test score to give you a leg up and because colleges tend to place more weight on junior year grades than freshman, one would have to call it a reach.
