Indeed you can.

But if at all possible, don't. It's much harder with such a low GPA.

Of course, if you loaded up on extracurriculars, you might not be in such bad shape.

All schools that will auto accept you as long as you have at least a 24 ACT or 2.5 GPA. And by auto I mean you get an email acceptance letter the next day, none of this waiting in anticipation crap.

nah 2.7 is a like a C+/B- average. 2.5 is C, 3.0 is B.

I had a 2.8 on graduation.
You can get into a good school with a 2.0 average. All depends on what school your going to.
For example: Like art schools don't care so much about your GPA as they do your portfolio and etc. I know people who have gotten into awesome art schools with absolutely crap gpa(As in less than a 2.0)

What makes you think you're going to be able to handle college with a GPA like that?

OP, a shitload of Air Force pilots have degrees in P.E., so I don't think you've gotta be a braniac to fly.

Most schools will take your 2.7, but don't scholerships of any kind… not even the bullshit ones worth 500$. Expect to be taking out many loans.

Hah, wow. I didn't think that state schools could have such low standards.

Just get into a community college to start and then transfer once you get your Associate's. Colleges mostly don't care about GPA if you do that.
