Chance me as a transfer to AU

Colleges and Universities A-Z American University

<p>Here is my background:</p>

<p>I graduated HS in 1998, went to early college as a senior in HS. Due to family and personal reasons, I withdrew and my gpa plummeted to 1.56. I moved around a bit and worked in a lot of top worldwide law firms. I have 13 years experience.</p>

<p>I moved back to my home state of Utah to finish school, but I want to be back east again and eventually go to law school. I have previously lived in DC and Philadelphia.</p>

<p>During this year in college since I have returned, I have a 3.85 cum gpa. This semester I am going full time and currently have all A’s. I will have an A.S. in General Studies from the cc I am attending currently. </p>

<p>I am planning on majoring in Finance and International Business, minor in english/creative writing or literature. I plan to then go on to law school.</p>

<p>I have counselor recommendations, great teacher recommendations and LOR’s from top attorneys I have worked for. My essays are shaping to be pretty good as well, should be good with a couple more revisions.</p>

<p>Do I have a chance of getting in? And do I have any kind of chance at merit aid?</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>I would say you have a high chance of getting in. As to merit aid, I would also say that it’s likely, though maybe not a ton.</p>

<p>Awesome. Thank you for the reply. </p>

<p>If I get accepted and don’t receive much merit aid, but prove myself the first year at AU, are there chances of being able to receive more aid the next year?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>
