They'd probably let farm animals into Hampton if theyMar 24 2011Journalism
They'd probably let farm animals into Hampton if they had GPAs and $30,000. It's not hard, you write an essay, pay the $35 application fee and can basically ensure your enrollment. They say the minimum GPA is 2.5, but eh. Give or take.

I think people that want to come here needOct 23 2010Criminal
I think people that want to come here need to apply early & have a high gpa b/c since we're a smaller university we can only accept so many students. Make sure that your essay is amazing b/c it is what sets you apart from everone else & it also looks good when you're involved in alot of clubs/athletics.

Check out the campus first if possibleJul 24 2004Business - Management and Administration
Check out the campus first if possible. I didn't get to do this ahead of time but you can call the school and set up a guided tour. Beautiful campus on the waterfront.

Also, put some time into your essay, it helps. Make sure to follow up with your application to make sure it's been received and processed.

My test scores were good so I think thisMar 23 2003Business - Management and Administration
My test scores were good so I think this held more weight than my GPA. My GPA was low but it was a result of taking IB, AP, and other accelerated courses. The essay is optional but I recommend doing it anyways because it can't hurt you and can help a lot, especially if you are proficient in writing.
