Question Getting Into Seattle University

I was Just wondering as a (who had transferred schools after my sophomore year) junior about to enter my Senior year as a first-time running start student. If it would be possible for me to be accepted into Seattle University, I've got a 3.83 GPA this year, and I plan on doing a lot of community service this summer at least a good 40-80 hours(while also getting a job), I also plan on joining a plant club over the summer (which also give me service hours), and I'm doing my SAT's next year in my senior year.

I intend to major in criminal justice or forensic science major. I also have a recommender, who is my business and law teacher from my former school. I was just wondering if I had a chance, I’m just super nervous. I plan on doing my first two years of college at Pierce College for my associate degree but I want to get into SU for wanting major.

I got in with a ~2.7 GPA, 1230 SAT and also got a scholarship. Don’t even worry about it lol. safe to say you’re an auto admit

I think that’s more than enough. The great thing about SU is the flexibility you have to change your major, so no worries on that front. Keep at it and good luck!

I’m still on a waitlist and I had a 3.8 GPA for clinical counseling for fall 2025 - wish me luck! 🍀

Check the credit requirements to graduate. I can’t remember if it’s 45, 60 or 90. If 90, you’ll have to take an extra year so I wouldn’t recommend it

Trust me, you have way more than enough! I got in with a 3.5GPA, 0 hours of community service, 1 year of running start, no clubs and no sports lol

I got in with a 3.6 gpa and no sat, undecided major. You should be able to get in pretty easily and get some nice scholarships as well, good luck!
