[mikea_theman]

Hi i am Mike and i was wondering how tough it actually is to get in to the Citadel. I am taking all the right classes but i will not be finished all my required classes till end of senior year(i procrastinated a little). I make good grades i have a 3.75 GPA and i am a JROTC cadet. It seams like everyone is making it sound hard to get in to. My uncle went there and he told me that it wasn't that hard to get in to. Thanks reply if you can.

Well, by going off of the two pieces of information given above. I'd say you look to be in good standing GPA-wise and like yourself, I too was in JROTC. It looks to me that you're on the right track. I'd say as long as you have half way decent SAT/ACT scores and can maintain your GPA, while staying in good standing in JROTC. You're set.

3.75 with JROTC puts you in an excellent position for admissions. Maintain the grades and you should be okay. The Citadel is not necessarily "easy" to get in to. Your uncle may have attended the institute when the expectations of the Admissions department were not so high. Times have changed. With each incoming class, the average GPA is raised. The incoming knob class have an average of a 3.5 or 3.6 if I'm not mistaken. Competition is getting tough, it keeps the standards of The Citadel high.
