qualthian Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 You never know. Better apply than regret not applying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xGeek Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 I agree with qualthian that you should apply if it's your dream school, especially if other parts of your application (research experience, publications, industry experience, recommendation letters or GRE) are strong. According to this: http://cs.stanford.edu/content/faqs#b15 you meet the minimum GPA requirements for MS at Stanford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamah Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 3.5 isn't so bad. If the rest of your application is strong then you definitely have a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grad2015 Posted December 6, 2013 Author Share Posted December 6, 2013 Another problem is that I have a double major and my second majors GPA is only 2.6. Even though this is not my major GPA I'm really afraid that it will hurt my chances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
