1% have GPA below 3.25 at JHU

Your GPA, course rigor (how many APs in sophomore and junior year vs # available to you? Only 2 total?) make admission to both schools a high reach. OOS admission rates for UM are around 20%, and average UW GPA is around 3.85 at UM. If you are a recruited athlete that might change things, but it would still be a reach.

GPA and rank is low for the two schools
JHU ED- high reach
Michigan- reach

my cumulative GPA is so low because of me struggling freshman year. Those low grades also restricted me from taking full advantage of AP courses during sophomore and junior year, (i transferred from public hs to private catholic after 9th grade). I explained the situation clearly in the category after my personal statement on the Common App

Okay that makes a difference and will help you

YOU USED TO CALL ME ON MY CELL PHONE.

I don’t think you have a chance at either because of your GPA, even with your circumstances. It’s simply too low.

900 hours of community service? bruh.

@obligatoryname no joke man. Whenever im not working im volunteering at the hospital or in my diocese
