I recommend students do the best they can in high school before applying to colleges. It is a lot better and easier to put in the extra effort ahead of time and be prepared when applications roll around instead of scrambling for a ton of volunteer work to try to even out poor grades. If academics is not your strong point, be diverse in your activities. Join clubs, hold down a job, do an internship. Build skills that will serve you, your university, and your world. Colleges value academics, but they also value people who will benefit their communities and will uphold the values that they have placed for themselves. Show that you can meet and exceed expectations set for you.
If you are interested in a program, apply directly to those and avoid being undeclared. You can always switch, and departments such as nursing have crazy readmission averages(3.8 gpa)
