<p>Hello! </p>
<p>I was wondering if there are any Penn nursing students out there, that were admitted as external transfer students (from a community college or four year). I just finished my first year at a community college, and completed 39 credits with a 3.5. I know that GPA needs to be brought up and I believe I can bring it up to a 3.7. I have recently shadowed a NP that graduated from Penn. I have a lot of community involvement, particularly in drug/alcohol prevention. Also, I plan to retake my SAT's because I didn't take them as serious as I should have in high school. I graduated in the top of my class however. Being that my current stats are not Ivy League (although I can work on that), is there any recommendations on applying as a transfer?</p>
