I posted this somewhere else. I am a current enlisted troop in the US military. I am a 23 year old African American male (if that means anything). I am interested in attending Cornell University and pursuing at Philosophy degree at the end of my enlistment. I am currently taking college courses right now and have a 3.8 GPA. The only thing I feel that will hold me back from being accepted is my high school GPA which is actually too embarrassing to mention. I made mistakes as a teenager have definitely matured since. I want to know how bad is my low high school GPA even though I will be eight years out of high school and have a pretty high college GPA when I apply to Cornell?
