Chance me for Smith and merit aid?

<p>Hi, everyone.</p>

<p>Here's my situation in a nutshell: I'm 20 years old right now, would be 21 by the time I start college again most likely. I went to UC Berkeley for about half a year back in 2010 and then withdrew. </p>

<p>I'm now looking for a completely different college experience, a small, tight-knit LAC experience, preferably a women's college too.</p>

<p>Anyway, what are my chances for getting into Smith as a transfer into the freshman class? And do I have ANY chance at getting merit aid? I doubt it, but...thought I'd ask because financing college will be really difficult for my family otherwise.</p>

<p>My stats:</p>

<p>I had a 3.85 UW GPA from high school, 4.5 W.
2150 SAT (800 W, 740 CR, 610 M)
AP's: 5 on English Language, 5 on English Literature, 5 on Government, 5 on U.S. History, 4 on Economics
SAT II: 730 - Literature, 710 - U.S. History
Class rank: I'm not sure what the final rank was, but it was somewhere between 8 and 15 out of about 500
3.8 GPA from UC Berkeley (two or three upper-division classes taken)
Good extracurriculars that show passion and longevity, and including professional experience as a copywriter and a social media marketer. </p>

<p>What are my chances?</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>No idea about getting in, but merit aid will not be good since you no longer have freshman status anymore from what I understand. They usually give much less to transfers.</p>

<p>Oh, okay! </p>

<p>Well, any other opinions too? :slight_smile: The more, the merrier.</p>
