Am I ready to transfer?

<p>Hello everyone,</p>

<pre><code> I am posting here in hopes of getting some advice. Firstly, I did very poorly in High School, 2.5 GPA. I decided to work straight after high school. After doing this for a year I enrolled in a local community college. However, I only took Welding classes. I took 4 total, ended up with 3 A's and one C. The C was purely due to attendance (conflict in schedule with work).

After wandering aimlessly for approximately another year, I decided to finally pursue a TRUE post-secondary education. I went to school with a goal in mind. My goal is to transfer to The University of Texas Austin. Here are the classes that I have completed so far:

<p>English 101 (Honors) A
English 102 (Honors) A
Chemistry I (Honors) A
Chemistry II (Honors) A
Calc I A
University Physics I B</p>

<p>I also have two W's on my record. A 'W' being withdrawn-passing. Unfortunately my employer changed my work schedule and I was forced to drop both classes. These classes where, College Algebra/Functions and Plane Trigonometry. However, I decided to be proactive and self-taught myself and tested into Calc the following semester.</p>

<p>Current Semester
Calc II<br>
University Physics II</p>

<p>Tracking an A in both classes</p>

<p>SAT 2300</p>

<p>I should also add that I am a first generation college student, and URM (Hispanic).</p>

<p>So with these stats, do I have a chance? Am I ready to transfer? I do realize that it would be better to do two full years of CC. However, on top of school I do work fulltime and then some (upwards of 60 hours). For this reason, I would love to transfer ASAP. I really would like to live on campus and not have to worry about making rent, while at the same time trying to stay on top of my studies.</p>

<p>Your SAT score really stands out. You may have a shot given that you really explain your situation in your essays. Good Luck</p>
