<p>I'm planning to apply to the spring semester at Rutgers New Brunswick from a CC.
In high school, I was the party guy who did ****. My gpa was like a 1.7 and a 1500 SAT. I decided to turn away from that crap at ac ommunity college and I now have a 3.7-3.6 gpa with 27 credits. I'm taking 12 more in the fall semester. I'm planning to apply to rutgers early sept for the spring semester. My optional essay will be pretty good I guess, I'll be talking about school pride and rutgers. I plan to be an economics major.
Do you think I have a shot? I applied to Montclair state/SUNY Albany/SUNY Buffalo and got in. But the difference is that all of them except Montclair did not request my high school records. Rutgers is requesting them.</p>
<p>What should I do to bump my chances? I know about getting in rutgers with an a.a is much easier but I want out of my home ASAP and want to experience real college life sooner! Get professor recommendations? (I got professors that actually like me... but that was in the spring/fall. How can I contact them now?) Should I say i'm applying undecided, even though I want to go in economics (which is in the school I'm applying to, school of arts and sciences.</p>
<p>I really want to go. I'm a pretty big rutgers fan without even being in the school. I do not want to go to other schools where I honestly would have a better chance because they no longer request high school records from me. (Northeastern/Syracuse/Umass amerhst)</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
