<p>Is there still any chance I can get into a 4-year college? I really haven’t looked into any of this yet and i’m a senior in HS. GPA is at a sad 1.9, I clearly know thats terrible. Class rank is 246/360 and I play 3 varsity sports for my school.</p>
<p>Too bad you don’t live in CA.</p>
<p>Do well on the SAT and your local public university might take you, especially if you’re a good enough athlete to play for them. </p>
<p>Otherwise, start out at a community college, do well, and transfer. Lots of people do it.</p>
<p>The thing that’s amazing to me is that, with a 1.9, you still have over 100 people below you in class rank. 1/3 of your class will not graduate?</p>
<p>Yes, there is definitely a school for you. Since you are from Massachusets, you should look up info on Framingham State, Mount Ida, Dean College, Salem State, Roger Williams, Curry College and Newbury College (they are looking for baseball players, if you play)</p>
<p>If you can afford them, there are lots of private colleges that would take you.</p>
<p>

<p>That is pretty amazing, but that doesn’t mean they won’t graduate. At my kid’s school you just need to get a D in everything (1.0) to pass. In fact, they say “D is for diploma, C is for college.”
And it’s California so you have to pass an exit exam too.</p>
<p>Good luck, Goldeneagles. You can hope that demonstrating academic effort this year will help. Check out schools with rolling admissions, etc. I’m pretty surprised that your school allowed you to play 3 varsity sports with a gpa of 1.9, but I may just be naive in our suburban bubble here where athletes are required to maintain gpas to play, etc.<br>
I do wish you the best of luck. I’m not so sure about a few of the schools previously mentioned however. My son is looking at some of those schools and for him with a 3.11 unweighted gpa they are not sure bets [RWU, Framingham State…which now boasts as being the most selective state college in Massachusetts. We went on a tour and it was actually very impressive, and we loved Roger Williams.] Folks are right about sports and private schools. Have you talked to your guidance counselor?<br>
Let us know how you make out. Good luck.</p>
<p>Is money an issue? </p>
<p>Are you good enough to play a college sport?</p>
<p>Did you take a college-prep curriculum?</p>
<p>if money isn’t a issue no doubt you can go away to a college.</p>
