nonbeingandsomethingness got a reaction from Marcus_Aurelius in 3.7 GPA or lower acceptances
I don't know whether what I have to say counts for anything, but I have talked to lots of different grad admissions and I think that they really try and look at the application holistically. If they are really excited about you, and the type of person/philosopher you present yourself to be through your application, then I don't think your 3.5 really matters all that much. My GRE scores are absurdly low and I have already had some luck with my acceptances. So, I really don't think you should be focused on the 'low point' of your application. As someone once told me (and this really stuck with me), all applications have them. Focus on showing them why they should accept you regardless of that 3.5

I just heard back- was told that while they were impressed with my application they still don't have a decision for me. I'm gonna take this as good news lol....

Hi yall.. need some advice.
If you can't make a visit because dates conflict with another visit is it the norm to inquire if you can come at another time? How does one navigate this?
Thanks!

Unfortunately, everyone I know that's gone through this process says that an unfortunate amount of schools just won't ever officially notify rejected applicants. Or, if they do it's obscenely late including after April 15th.
