<p>I know that this is a bit of a stretch, but hopefully there will be someone who will be able to give me a good indication. I'm basically trying to figure out more about the difficulty of trying to transfer into SCPS. I'm currently studying at Indiana University and am trying to transfer so I can obtain a B.S. in Real Estate. I've been receiving mixed reviews on how difficult it is to get into the school. I've heard from several people on this site that it's not difficult; those were from threads like 2-3 years ago. I've also heard from others that it's really competitive.</p>
<p>My current stats are as follows: </p>
<ul>
<li>3.3 college GPA</li>
<li>(SAT scores not required by school)</li>
<li>(AP scores not required by school... essentially, high school transcript is moot)</li>
<li>work experience for the past 2 summers (8 months) as a consultant at a business</li>
<li>professional experience for the past 2 summers (8 months) as an intern for a independent real estate broker</li>
<li>personal statement should be fantastic as I'm receiving help from 2 professors, 3 graduate students, and the writing tutorial services at my school. I want to make it the best that it can be They are NOT helping with the writing; it is purely all my own. </li>
<li>2 great letters of recommendation from professors</li>
<li>volunteering experience with the local Parks & Rec and Animal Shelter </li>
<li>(extra curricular not very relevant in my personal statement as they aren't related to real estate)</li>
</ul>
<p>I remember being told by an admissions officer that the recommended GPA for the school is a 3.0 and that they're not very traditional as other schools since its tailored for more adults returning to schooling. I've been told by a "secretary" (whoever picked up the phone at the number I called) that if I meet the requirements, then I'll be in. I don't really know what exactly she means by "requirements" since she's not an admissions officer. Perhaps she was just trying to make me feel at ease? </p>
<p>If anyone who perhaps was admitted into SCPS or have any knowledge on this topic can respond, I would greatly appreciate it. I'm just so stressed out about getting in!</p>
