See if you can prove that your rose to the occasion as a leader @ UMiami. Also, spend a lot of time on your essays and do not let that GPA drop.

Do you think I should prove that I rose to a position of leadership at Miami though my essays, rather than just a resume? @yikesyikesyikes

What do you guys think about applying as a summer 2020 transfer vs. fall 2020 transfer? Need some advice about this
