Chance for GWU please! Fall 2013 transfer

<p>Not sending in HS stuff - have over 30 credits.</p>

<p>At my community college.
Graduated HS in 2011
In the summer of 2011 took 3 college classes
Fall of 2011 took 5 and in the winter took 2.</p>

<p>When the Spring 2012 semester started I had 30 credits and a 3.86 GPA.</p>

<p>I held two leadership positions - was President of Amnesty International and president of a student/faculty activism group on campus. Member of other clubs as well.
Phi Theta Kappa and also part of Honors Program/Honors Club
This was all from Fall up until Summer and now.</p>

<p>In the Spring of 2012 I did fairly well except for my Stat class in which I got an F. I'm not good in math and had serious family issues, other professors were lenient, math prof wasn't. Got 2 B's, the F, and an A. I think I'm missing one more class, can't remember.
But my gpa did go down.</p>

<p>I applied to GWU and AU in the Spring for Fall 2012 and got into both. Elliott for International Affairs. I didn't end up going because my family issues worsened and I didn't receive anything about financial aid.</p>

<p>I took the Stat class over the summer and got a B+.</p>

<p>I also interned at Human Rights Watch over the summer. My internship was extended for a month. I had no plans to return to school because of my whole family situation, my family was thinking of moving to Pakistan but my mom got really sick and had to have surgery so my plans kept on getting delayed. HRW said they would extend my internship for the Fall if I enrolled in school and so I did. I took one class, Bio, and got an A. My gpa is now a 3.71. </p>

<p>After my internship at HRW ended in the end of September, I "interned" at the Permanent Mission of Pakistan to the United Nations. That lasted for about 3 weeks. Then I got a part time job from November to December. And now its January and I haven't done anything this entire month. I am planning to go to Pakistan in February to intern there and work with a journalist until June/July.</p>

<p>My question is after all this, what are my chances of getting into GWU/ Elliott again? The deputy director of the division I was interning at HRW is kind enough to write me a letter of recommendation so I'm hoping that'll help. But I wasn't part of any school clubs because I was interning 5 days a week and taking a Sunday class this past semester and that's how I thought the rest of the semester would go, but it didn't.</p>

<p>I'm also trying to get a grade from Spring changed, a B to an A, because my professor didn't "get" any of my papers and based my final grade on just the final exam. I spoke to the associate director of admissions at GWU over the summer and he said they do consider the fact that I was admitted and it'll help. But I'm just worried that my gpa went down and I wasn't part of any clubs and stuff this semester.</p>

<p>Sorry for the long post but had to explain everything!</p>

<p>Chance please!! :) thank you</p>

<p>Forgot to mention- I have 49 credits now. And my stat class is the second class I took over. In the Fall I took my womens studies class over from the summer in which I got a C because my prof…omg she failed half the class and in the Fall I got an A.</p>

<p>^ Thanks ssd2149</p>

<p>Bump. Someone shed some light please?</p>

<p>I am also applying to GWU from AU this semester and only have a 3.54 so i am extremely nervous as well.</p>
