You don't have to do a lot to get into VCU. After all, 60 percent of the applicants get in here. I would suggest William and Mary, UVa, URichmond, or Mary Washington first.

VCU is not famous by accepting only the bright and best. The main goal of the school is to be an active part of a community and is now the main school in the Richmond/Central VA area.
So your grades might not be a real factor here, but your experience - like volunteering and working in the community, or having a great artistic portfolio - will make a huge difference.
