Utah State? I expected her to be talking about Wharton. It appears from their profile that if you can fog a mirror you will get accepted (6000 application...5900 acceptances...98%), but there are some minimum standards for the business school that she must have known:
From the Utah State website:
All Jon M. Huntsman School of Business Majors (except accounting)
Admit directly to Jon M. Huntsman School of Business major if all of the following conditions are met:
1. Admitted to Utah State University
2. Designated a Jon M. Huntsman School of Business major on university application
3. Less than 24 post-high school earned college credits
4. ACT Composite of 24 or higher
5. High School GPA of 3.5 or higher
So her GPA was under a 3.5...it happens...they have a process for non-freshman to transfer into the business school that does not appear to be too rigorous for a full IB candidate. The same thing happened to me 20 years ago at Boston University...I worked hard my freshman year, taking a good mix of courses, and was able to get into the school of management.
