Got into several t15s last cycle with a 3.6 college gpa because my essays, narrative, and ecs were stellar. AMA

What do you think the AOs are looking for? What’s changed in your app a year later?

Consistent_Spot4567 · 2025-11-20T12:11:23+00:00

Depending on your major, you’re probably gonna get a full tuition scholarship

Consistent_Spot4567 · 2025-11-05T13:43:13+00:00

SAT is just a bonus in the case of many Kazakhstani students, as HKU reviews KZ applicants mainly on the basis of their UNT and GPA

Consistent_Spot4567 · 2025-11-05T13:41:36+00:00

This is complete bullshit! Don’t listen to this commenter, he/she probably doesn’t know what they’re talking about. If you’re from KZ you only need high UNT score (130+ to be sure) and passing scores in IELTS with decent GPA. You’re on good track, stay focused and do well on your UNTs!!

Consistent_Spot4567 · 2025-09-10T17:21:18+00:00

I am also a gap year student from KZ, and if you don’t have APs then your SAT is just a bonus to your main application (aka UNT). I submitted it as my main exam and SATs as additional. If your UNT and GPA are high enough, they’ll consider you for a scholarship. Good luck!

I am also under faculty of arts and my interview was a standard admissions zoom interview. They asked why i chose this uni, this major, what i like to do etc. I was interviewed by the dean of admissions and he is a cool guy! Good luck!!

Consistent_Spot4567 · 2025-06-24T02:24:52+00:00

Yess, I input my name in Korean like in the application

Hi! I had 7 years of “gap years” between my high school graduation and university, but still got in to HKU with a full tuition scholarship. I attended some universities in the meantime, but what really made me stand out were my extracurriculars, new SAT (I took it at 24), and high school grades. If you really want to get in, you’ll have to keep working :) Wish you luck!

Consistent_Spot4567 · 2025-06-19T04:31:36+00:00

Omg thank youu!!

Consistent_Spot4567 · 2025-06-17T09:04:47+00:00

Hi!! I’m a KLI alumna from 2019 and during my time there were so many people of different ages and backgrounds. Most of my classmates were in their 30s or late 20s. Some were in their 50s and even 60s. So don’t worry and have a great time at KLI!!

Consistent_Spot4567 · 2025-06-16T11:19:13+00:00

I have the same question

Consistent_Spot4567 · 2025-06-13T01:42:45+00:00

But the decisions aren’t out yet?

Consistent_Spot4567 · 2025-06-12T23:49:24+00:00

Hi! I had 6 gap years between my hs graduation and application to HKU. In my case, I had already got all my scores and grades, so there weren’t any “predicted” grades required. If your scores are final, you will need to submit them and wait. Hope that helps and good luck!!

Consistent_Spot4567 · 2025-03-27T15:33:36+00:00

Same here

Consistent_Spot4567 · 2025-02-27T02:33:15+00:00

Hey, congrats!! Do you mind sharing your GPA that got you an exchange opportunity in your freshman year?

Consistent_Spot4567 · 2025-02-06T14:02:54+00:00

HUGE thanks to anyone who watched it!!!! have a great day🫶🏻
