[quote=Anonymous].[/quote] I agree. But when the college website says to aim for at least a 3.6 GPA and A's and B's in core subjects, and posts it average test scores, you would expect the OOS-ers to have more than a 3.5 GPA. They should be 3.9+ and on the higher end of the median range of test scores.[/quote] This was my issue with JMU last year. It's one thing to admit more OOS students for $$ purposes but to have an entirely different standard for OOS feels different as a taxpayer. NoVA kids with way higher GPAs (sometimes as much as 1.0 difference) and more rigor are passed up for OOS students with zero AP/DE and GPA (many less than 3.5). These OOS stats I'm referring to are posted by parents on a FB group for "average" college applicants. I do know that it works this way in other states too with OOS kids needing less than instate for places like Rutgers (and sounds like PSU now). [/quote]
