“I got lucky, I got accepted in 2004 whenAug 20 2004Political Science
I got lucky, I got accepted in 2004 when 80% got in with a 3.0 GPA and an 1140 SAT. I applied from Florida (out-of-state admission). In 2006 with the new admission standards I could have been rejected with these grades and scores. Getting in for an Arizona resident will be what it is now for an out of state resident and getting in for an out of state resident will be far more difficult. My advice? Get the best grades you can, study and prepare for those SATs and do community service. In 20 years this school will be as hard to get into as other schools like UF or UNC and you can say you were part of it.
