Answers to your Bard admission questions.
| Q: | Hello, I'm a 17 yr. old Junior in high school. I'm very interested in attending Bard, and it seems like it would be a good fit for me. However, my GPA for freshman and sophomore year (combined) is pretty low. I've taken honors and AP classes, though and I've done relatively well. I've also been doing volunteer work. My question is; what actions would you reccomend I start to take if I would like to go to Bard? |
