Hi everyone! One of my top schools is Pepperdine, however, with my scores I’m not confident I’ll get in. I have sufficient EC’s and believe I wrote the best essay and supplement I could with help from multiple teachers, but I’m still anxiously waiting my admission decision. I have a 3.3 UW & 3.4 W GPA with a 1210 SAT. I’ve taken 4 AP classes (economics, French, world history, and literature & composition) and am heavily involved with my school’s Student Council (part of my Common App essay was about how I helped in setting up my school’s first ever Homecoming Dance and other events). My low GPA is due to me completely screwing myself over freshman year, which they’ll see on my transcript but still really worries me. I haven’t gotten my hopes up, but if I got in I wouldn’t even hesitate to put down my deposit down right then and there. Is it even possible that I’ll get admitted/deferred? If anyone has similar scores and has heard anything or is applying I’d love to talk! Thanks!
