4.0 GPA In Community College Transfer options

Transfer Students
1

<p>I graduated HS at 16 in June 2010. I have a 2.97 GPA and a 1375 in my SATs.
I am from New York City, Brooklyn.
I am going to apply to 4 SUNY Schools. </p>

<p>Oswego
Bufallo
Oneonta
Binghamton</p>

<p>I don't feel as if i have a good chance into getting into those schools. So i am also Applying to City Tech CUNY and Brooklyn College CUNY.</p>

<p>If i get accepted into my SUNY Oswego i will go there, if not i am planning on going to City Tech for a year, keep my GPA at a 3.8 or better and transfer to a well known private university. </p>

<p>What do you all think about this plan. Is it valid, am i doing the right thing. I am really nervous and worried about this decision.</p>

<p>How did you manage to get a 1375 on the SAT? And uh, I don’t really see anything wrong with either, only that it might not be as easy as you think to go the community college route. There are definitely 4-year schools that will have you with those numbers.</p>

<p>You should post this question in the Transfer Forum. Click on “Discussion Home” in the upper-left of this screen, and scroll down to find it. Don’t forget to read through the thread at the top of that forum titled “Transfer Admissions 101”.</p>

<p>If you are currently attending a community college, your best bet is to complete your A.A. there, and then apply for a transfer. Talk to your counselor about the articulation agreements between your community college and the universities in the SUNY system. If you complete a specific A.A. program with a specific GPA, you will have guaranteed admission to the third year of a program with an articulation agreement.</p>

<p>Does your community college have a chapter of Phi Theta Kappa? If so, do your best to meet the requirements for membership. Many colleges and universities have scholarships specifically for PTK members.</p>

<p>1375 out of 1600 or 2400? If it’s out of 16 you can at the very least get into any CUNY.
Why haven’t you applied to colleges until now though?</p>

<p>The main reason is because i really had no idea what i wanted to do exactly. Now that i know exactly what i want to do i want to apply and go back to school. </p>

<p>I really want to get in to Oswego, if i don’t get into it i will stay at a community college for 2 years get a 4.0 GPA and transfer to a good private university. I can do it, i just need to figure which schools will accept me.</p>

<p>I am sending my application in Oct. 12th because the 15th is when they start reviewing applications for the Spring semester. I have everything ready just waiting till Monday to go pick up my high school recommendation.</p>

<p>Basically i’m just really anxious to find out which schools will accept me.</p>

<p>Someone help me out here, i dont know what i’m doing.</p>

<p>you should probably talk to a HS/CC counselor. They’d be best to advise you on what route to take.</p>

<p>you’d get into all the SUNYs you listed, so i don’t see what you’re worried about. bing may be a bit of a stretch if you’ve only been in your CC for one semester, but really, i think you’re more than fine. there are other SUNYs you’d definitely get into, too, like potsdam, cortland, fredonia, empire state, etc.</p>
