I want to qualify my recommendation of CC: If your 2.8 GPA is the result of a really terrible freshman year, with a steadily rising trend, or is due to a family tragedy (the illness or death of someone close to you), schools may be willing to overlook your academic record and take a chance on you.

However, if neither of these situations applies, I stand by my original recommendation. (As a parent, I would insist on this for my own kid because I’d be unwilling to spend thousands of dollars on someone who hasn’t shown much commitment, thus far, to education.)
