Hi ! I’m an international student from Vietnam and am now applying for Berea College for next fall semester ( 2016 ).
I don’t have neither IELTS or TOEFL but :
I have a 27 in ACT ( self-taught )
3 APs of 4 ( self-taught also )
Some credentials from VetMedTeam Online course ( but forget to include those credentials in the apps )
About 250+ hours of volunteering at an animal shelter and many more ECs hours at school working at events / fundraising
Have a quite powerful essay about personal progress evolving from a shy self-loathed person to a more confident person.
My family is now in debt and can only contribute $5000 / year for my education and both of my parents are retired and are now on social aids from government. I don’t have a job either.
Sadly, I’m now attending an US college which means that I would be considered a transfer student. I know it is nearly impossible to get admitted because of my status. But because my family got into financial burdens during the time I’m enrolling that college and could not afford the tuition anymore that I have to either end my college career or taking on more debt on top of the one I’ve already had.
Yea that’s pretty much my situation. Please chance me
