<p>Trying again with this post since I had no replies prior. </p>

<p>Last year as a senior in high school with a 3.4 GPA and 1800 SAT score (1180 math and critical reading) I was accepted into a branch campus of the University of Connecticut. I realize this is iffy for the main campus for an in-state student.</p>

<p>I had 7 UCONN ECE credits to go along with my application as well. </p>

<p>I am currently attending Southern Connecticut State University as a freshman and am looking to transfer for the fall semester into the school of liberal arts at Storrs to pursue a dual major. Here are my stats for the first semester of college.</p>

<p>18 credits (the limit at SCSU)
3.83 GPA
Dean's List
Intro Psych: A-
Macroeconomics: A+
First Year Experience Class: A+
Critical Thinking, Physics: A
Elementary Stats: B+
English Composition II: A
Received letter of recommendation from Psych department head.
Working job on campus. (secretary)</p>

<p>This semester I am also taking the course limit (Calculus, Microeconomics, Personality psych, Lifespan psych, Western Civilization, Elements of Physics Lab+Lecture).
My essay was very well written, and my application was completed on January third. I am fairly confident of being accepted I just want to be accepted into the main campus. (my dream school!) I don't want to be branched again and I have made that clear in my writing. </p>

<p>So what do you all think my chances are? </p>

<p>(If it wasn't already obvious I am an in-state student)</p>

<p>Based on your stats, it would be a shame if they didn’t accept you. My DS is a senior this year and is “patiently” waiting for his decision. His stats are similar to yours. He has applied to 11 nicely ranked schools, been accepted to 9 and is waiting to hear from UCONN and one other. He really believes UCONN (as an in-state student) is his reach. We wish you all the luck in the world, you deserve the transfer to Storrs! Congrats on your success at SCSU.</p>

<p>It looks like you’ve picked it up quite a bit in college. This happens all the time with students coming out of high school, which is why CC beforea 4-year university is such a popular and successful option in larger states such as California. UConn accepts a lot of transfers, so I would say you’ll get in.</p>

<p>I appreciate the kind words. I know they start deciding around the beginning of February (in the order in which they are received) so it should be any day now, I’ll repost when I hear back.</p>
