Can I get into a good college with a 2.8 GPA and a 1900 in the SAT?

<p>Obviously not ivies or other great ones but what do you guys think? Am I doomed to a mediocre college or staying at my home country? Im definetely gonna try to apply to some good/decent colleges such as university of florida/university of central florida and others.</p>

<p>I am plannning on studying something related to business.
Also, what colleges do you guys reccomend for someone with my statss?</p>

<p>I’d go for a state university, if I were you.
One of my friends got into Nova in Ft.Lauderdale, and his stats were kind of like yours (except that his GPA was higher like 3.2 and SAT scores were lower). It’s not a great school, but it’s decent and has good business programs according to him.
:slight_smile: good luck!</p>

<p>A lot depends on the reasons for that GPA. Is this GPA the result of a professional evaluation of your transcript or did you calculate it yourself? Do you have some very good grades, and some very bad ones? Are all of your grades around 2.8 no matter what class you took them in? </p>
