Answer 1

Generally any college will look for the gpa for admissions and most of the colleges have criteria of 50%or 60% pass percentage and also they prefer full time educated without any gaps.In this way, you might be effected.

But these kind of colleges have a SOP(statement of purpose) to be filled out at the time of admission wherein you have to specify why you are opting for that particular college.So if those colleges have no constraints of gpa and continuous education and you give a good SOP letter,there are chances of you getting in.

Ihope this helps!!
