SLPhopeful129 got a reaction from slpwannabe18 in Low GPA--Plan B/Reapply?
Don't give up! I applied to about 13 schools, got wait listed for 4 and accepted into 2 programs. It was my first time applying BUT my stats didn't look too good. My overall GPA from undergrad was a 3.2 (last 60 was probably something like a 2.8), but my prerequisites were about a 3.7 or so. My GRE scores were 151V, 156Q and 4.0AW.
I think it just depends on the programs themselves because I got rejected form schools that were not highly ranked, but got wait listed into higher ranked schools (above 20th place overall). I just spread my hopes out and preparing myself to not get accepted. If you have the funds to do so, I would apply again and to a variety of schools (in state and out of state).
If you are interested in an online program, I know that NYU does 3 rounds of applications a year for their online program. Also, I've heard that it's easier to get into a program that starts in the summer (Florida has one) because people typically apply for the fall. Easier meaning a smaller application pool, but not less competitive.
Best of luck!
