Upward trend in GPA. School doesn’t really weight grades so this is basically my unweighted GPA.
I know I have low GPA but I have taken the most rigorous classes/gotten a competitive ACT score.
I’ve never recieved a D+ or lower in any of my classes, just quite a few C’s that could have been
prevented, I did bad freshman year averaged about a 3.4 sophomore/junior year.
Please let me know what chances I have, thanks!

Your ACT is right in their range but I’m afraid your GPA is too low, you might not have a very good chance.
