bad hs/good college/transfer chances

<p>I had a 2.0 in high school for some certain reasons, which I have a good explanation for. At community college I have approximately a 3.7 in 70 semester hours where I have taken Calc I and II, Physics w/lab, Chemistry w/lab, Elementary German I and II, Intermediate German I and II, and nearly all of the general education requirements…I attend the University of Miami where I pulled a 3.3 with 15 semester hours for the one semester I was there. However, I had to leave due to something personal and the dean as well as the president said they are going to be writing me outstanding letters of recommendations to whatever school I wish to attend. I also have superior extracurricular activities, leadership positions held, president of clubs, and other significant letters of recommendations from professors and such. Do you think they will be willing to overlook my poor high school performance, and do you think I have a good shot for admission assuming I have good essays, etc? I have never had less than a “B” in college.</p>

<p>Unfortunately the rumor that I heard is that High school grades will always follow you around. especially your last semester grades. It's the case especially for those who want to transfer after only one year. The college needs to see more records sinceyou don't have two years to see sufficient work. In most cases, even after two years most colleges will ask for a high school transcript. I hope they can overlook it but don't get too pumped about it.</p>

<p>Your college performance isn't all that good enough for a Columbia transfer, either. So you're getting a rec from Donna Shalala? I'm sure she knows you reeeeeeeeal well.</p>

<p>I bet that Shalala was one of his 'leadership activities'! lol!</p>

<p>I don't think you have a good shot after your freshman year. Maybe next year they won't regard your high school career as much.</p>

<p>ill be applying for junior status since ive completed 70 hours at community college and 15 at miami</p>

<p>I still think you'll be asked for your high school performance grades so you're not out of the woods yet.</p>

<p>they do require high school grades, so how much weight is that going to be given compared to my college ones?</p>
