<p>My brother is applying as a transfer from LCS community college in Houston.
He is applying to liberal arts college Economics/German.
~3.6 GPA will have 20 credit hours at the time he applies in the spring.</p>
<p>Phi Theta Kappa (w/e that club is for CC)
Honors Program
College Republicans (would you suggest listing this on an app? I did and it was fine but idk how liberal UT is)</p>
<p>I don't even know for sure but I know he has some community serve.... </p>
<p>Thanks in advance.... Mostly just looking to see how difficult transferring in will be for him.</p>
<p>Good chance if he has some leadership stuff. Don’t list college republicans. They are obviously told to be objective, but anyone with half a brain knows that some admissions people can and will hold it against him.</p>
<p>I was wondering on that. I put Campus Republicans which I founded in HS and Yale didn’t mind! My brother is big into it too and that’s a major part of his EC’s, I wonder if he fibbed and said “College Independents” or “Political Science Club”.</p>
<p>The only problem is the number of credits. I applied and got rejected (Fall 10) because I didn’t have enough credits. (I needed 24 credits since I’m international…you need 30 credits I think if you’re a US citizen). I got accepted for Spring 11 because I had enough credits and raised my gpa also</p>
<p>I’m on the quarter system so when I applied, I sent in my transcripts for Fall 09 and Winter 10 credits. This was during my third Quarter when I was taking additional credits obviously and by the time I was to be enrolled, I would have had enough credits. I was rejected. I reapplied before the Fall 10 Quarter with my transcripts from Fall 09, Winter 10 and Spring 10 Quarters and I got in.</p>
