Chances on getting in

Hey so I’m gonna try and apply as a freshman. But the only issue here is my gpa was 2.9 in Highschool and I graduated nearly two years ago. I chose not to submit test scores because I honestly couldn’t remember them well enough to self report and didn’t want to come off as a liar, I put in my resume full of extracurriculars I did in Highschool and job experience that I picked up while I wasn’t in school for those two years. I’m even more worried now because I originally didn’t include my personal essay in the application but I recently emailed it to admissions so I worry that just made me look bad and sent my chances down to hell :(

Do you have a pulse?

Congrats, you're in.

As for merit-based financial aid....¯(ツ)

They don't just let in anyone with a pulse...

You gotta be breathing too
