hmm. i think if you had either a high gpa but low test scores or vice versa you could have a shot. the fact that youre not from the northeast and not exactly the typical student could help you, but i dont know if it makes up for the fact that your gpa is a little low and less than 25% of students had lower than a 27 act. if your school is very competitive, maybe your gpa will count for more

i got rejected from CAS early decision and had a 3.3 gpa and a 30 on the act, lots of clubs, etc. however, im a white girl from philadelphia. im actually really bitter about how they let people in who have lower stats than me just because of their ethnicities…but thats another story. there are people on here who were accepted with similar stats, so you really never know.

good luck
