Chance a community college student?

<p>Can you guys tell me if I can get into Columbia College from a community college?</p>

<p>My HS performance was terrible GPA wise, to be honest. I took 3 APs I think (scores weren't good at all) and a bunch of honors. Did 50 hrs of volunteer work. 2 years of soccer. 2/3 years of theatre (nothing major there). </p>

<p>college
GPA: 3.95
Major: Philosophy
SATs: 2150 (might retake, doubtful of any change though)</p>

<p>ecs
1) Internship 1: (nonprofit) editor in chief and developer of official newspaper, I am in charge of volunteers, I also go to schools sometimes and give presentations, etc (from April - present)
2) Internship 2: (nonprofit) more stuff, I dunno how to list these (from August - present)
Both will last well over the application deadline
3) Phi Theta Kappa member and officer, in charge of a bunch of things
4) Student Government Senator
5) might tutor about 5 hrs a week starting September
6) Philosophy Club (leader)
7) involved with Financial Aid Office, etc (I forget my official title lol)
8) started online and print literary magazine
9) in the works of starting nonprofit
10) Honors Association adviser
11) published in literary magazine and likely to happen again</p>

<p>I don't think my ECs are that good really. I'm looking to do something really special but I'm drawing blanks.</p>

<p>My HS performance is likely to hurt me tremendously and my unimpressive ECs. I might also do a few hours of volunteer work, not amounting to much of anything honestly. </p>

<p>I think my essays will be really good. If anything, I can write relatively well. I think I'll get some good letters of recommendation.</p>

<p>Can someone tell me if Columbia is a silly dream? </p>

<p>I posted before a similar thread but for Columbia GS. I realized I didn't qualify recently. </p>

<p>I appreciate all input.</p>

<p>To be frank, successful transfer applicants usually were extremely competitive (i.e. had a handful of acceptances from top schools) as HS seniors. The slots are just too few for Columbia to give to late bloomers such as yourself. Good luck though and congrats on the achievement to date.</p>
