Hi there! I would say that anything is possible. It really is all about how you package your achievements. I myself have applied to 8 colleges and so far have gotten into 7, I have no real interest in the ivies. But my background is first college 2.013 gpa, second college 2.26 gpa and my current college 3.69 gpa last fall and 3.68 this spring. I am a non traditional student at age 44, I didn't think I had a chance in hell! I applied to 3 reaches and got into 1 so far awaiting decisions from the other two. If you have anything that you do in your spare time that is worthy of note, it can help you. So I say go for it! The only way to know is to apply! I hope this helps!
