<p>LaxAttack. Nice work man. It is so frustrating applying to those schools from a CSU. I applied to all of them (except Brown), I had the same SAT and a higher GPA(3.69), but was rejected from every single one of the schools. Good luck at UCLA</p>
<p>Sunshadow, I was accepted to Georgetown as a sophomore transfer after being rejected as an incoming freshman.</p>
<p>LaxAttack what did you write in your essay?</p>
<p>My essay was very good....plus I had a really good HS record which got me into the service academies. Recs were amazing, and wrote about my journey from HS --> academy --> state school --> cc....probably the best thing I've ever written haha.</p>
<p>impressive man...any reason who you picked UCLA over brown&cornell?</p>
<p>Well I wanna go to LS, so my undergrad doesn't really matter that much. I wanted warm weather and a great sports program so UCLA won out in that respect. Had it been a bigtime ivy, such as yale/harvard/princeton or something then that would have been hard to say no to, but with my career goals I didn't see much of an adv of going to brown/cornell over la.</p>
<p>Krocket606 - Really? Wow. What do you think made the difference? Or rather, why do you think you were rejected as an incoming freshman and then accepted as a sophomore?
Congrats for not giving up.</p>

<p>We're proud of him...DS is a disability student with severe anxiety about going off to college to live and learn independently. At times, it may not have been pretty, but he did it!!!! He's transferring locally because he felt the "current school" culture was toxic, and because the new school has a much better program in his major and areas of interest.</p>
