Please comment on my chances of getting into their general studies program! Thanks guys!
I also want to note that I am getting good teacher recommendations from my Chemistry and AP English Comp teacher from last year.
The person above is wrong; BU has a 58% acceptance rate, and the College of General Studies is easier to get into than the other colleges.
I’d say you have a good chance. Your SAT scores are definitely on the low side, but your GPA’s respectable, and your senior year curriculum and extracurriculars are strong. It seems as though you’re really passionate about music; make sure you play that up on your app.
