I think that applying to Xavier is promising to in-state and out-of-state. In 2007, the average gpa was 3.2, accepted 163 people, accepted 127 in state, and 38 out of state. Also, I am Asian and I know a lot of Asians get accepted as well. Good luck to you all.
Now their average GPA can be misleading because they tend to accept their students with a much lower GPA's than students that don't complete their prerequisites at Xavier. The average GPA for transfer students is about 3.5 instead of 3.2.
I am applying my app was sent in the beginning of september, but according to the letter I was just sent my recommenders have yet to send in their forms 🙁
