hey all. GPA is definitely not the be-all end-all, nor do I think it's even the first round of screening/cut off for most social/oriented programs
I graduated with a 2.49 from McGill.
I have been accepted for MPP's/MPA's at George Washington, NYU, Carnegie Mellon, University of Manchester (England)
What got me in?
maybe GRE's (690q 710v 5.5W)
PS
Past exeperience (4 internship/1 job)
3 languages spoken
And I'm 22! work experience and languages win it over GPA for me
