Is Indiana a good fit?

Indiana will accept essays and teacher recs also. They only look at them, however, for borderline candidates. You are slightly above borderline in my view. The 4 honors courses that move your GPA up to 3.25 weighted from the otherwise unweighted 3.03 is what should get you in.

P.S. Make sure your school puts the weighted 3.25 GPA on your transcript. Either that or have your counselor/principal put it in a signed letter to IU-B. The admission people at IU-B will use whatever is on the transcript–and if the 3.03 GPA gets put on the transcript instead, they will use that–which would hurt your chances for admission.

Good luck!
