I'm thinking about applying to Morehouse College, but I dont think I have what it takes to be accepted. They require a 2.5 GPA and I have a 2.3 if that.They want a 21 ACT score, I have not received my ACT scores yet,but I know I didnt do as good on them as I could have. I just dont see why they would accept a dude like me. I really want to go to this school and I know if they give me a chance to prove myself I can keep my GPA in the 3.0 ranger or higher. I also dont have a ton of community service so they will probably think I'm lazy, when the truth is my last 2 years of high school have been chaotic. Ahhh man I dont know what I'm going to do. I just know if they take the risk on me they want be upset, but like I said before why would they take a risk on a kid with credentials like mine. If any of you currently attend Morehouse College can you please tell me if its even worth a try to apply?
It's always worth it to apply but if your aren't accepted and you're convinced that Morehouse is your school, go to a community college first, get your gpa up and transfer in. Best Wishes with your decision.
