You think that an large number of weaker students are admitted to JMU and then pick somewhere else? I mean, it would be awesome if they did, because it would mean that people are finally paying serious attention to the mismatch problem and are putting their less bright children into places where they're not low man on the totem pole, but I refuse to believe there's been such an outbreak of sensibility. |
I can tell you that mason admits much lower stats and that their GPA is so high because high stats kids go their to live at home and save money. You cannot apply the data from these statistics to determine if your kid will be admitted. |
Daughter rejected from JMU and CNU with a 3.6. Several friends in the 3.3-3.6 range rejected as well. JMU and CNU are not easy to get into with a 3.3. And BTW my daughter is a legacy to both. |
