[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have experience only with Oxford graduate programs.  When Oxford says a 3.7 minimum, it means it.  Don't even try.[/quote]

:roll:[b]  That's not at all what the OP was asking.  [/quote][/b]

She said she had experience "ONLY" with it.  stop being a jerk.

As to St. Andrews, what they say (2.5) is apparently not what they mean: "St. Andrews University requires a minimum college GPA of 2.5 on a 4.33 point scale and a minimum high school GPA of 2.5. However, applicants should ideally have a current GPA of at least 3.04, with a preferred GPA of around 3.16. The university accepts 42.86% of transfer applicants, making the process competitive."[/quote]

But that's not what the OP is asking.  You're assuming the criteria for general admissions as an undergrad are the same as the criteria to be accepted at the target university as a study abroad student.  Which may or may not be true. But this sounds like a very university specific criteria, so best your kid talks to his own school and gets their opinion.  [/quote]

Exactly.  Graduate admissions have nothing to do with study abroad requirements.[/quote]
