I go to Bradley University and will be a senior this year. My overall GPA is 3.8 and pre requirement GPA is 3.69 and based on my GPA, I'm "in." I have a little over 50 hours of shadowing and have my refenrcnes in already, one from a special needs job employer and one from a research professor. I feel really stressed about just finishing the application still and I'm not sure why I do. Anyone else have experiences with early assurance or direct admit?

I wouldn't say your 'in" it really depends on the schools you are applying too. For example my number choice is the University of Utah, they base their acceptances off a 20 point format. 5 points for GRE/GPA/Observation, 9 points on essays, 6 points on References. As you can see they put a lot more emphasis on other sections of the application that many people don't really think about as much. That is only to get an interview, then they see if they like you in the interview. Your grades are great so don't worry about that but focus on any of those other areas that might be lacking.

For my school, if you have the GPA and you complete the application you are automatically accepted
