<p>Hi all! I am a new member to this site. Found out about its existence some time ago and decided to give it a go. Hey, it can only help!
I am currently a Community College student seeking to transfer in about a whole school year or less from now. I am an International Business major seeking to transfer to a top business school, God willing. UPenn, Columbia, and a few others are on my list. Here are some of my stats:</p>
<pre><code> GPA: 3.95
Current Credits Completed: 38 (At the end of this semester)
Activites: President of the college's business club
Active member in Honor's society. (Will run for executive office next year)
Eagle Scout
I am planning to retake the SAT's as well since some schools require them. A community college wasn't my first choice, as I was accepted into several 4-year institutions my senior year. Unforseen circumstances arose such as finances, transportation, and work, so I withdrew my classes from my first semester of that 4-year school and am now attending a community college, after setting my affairs in order. Since I withdrew, I have no grades from that college. Thank God, I have been doing great ever-since. I was also promised letters of reccomendations from several of my professors thus far. I am also considered a minority student. Assuming I keep this GPA and continue to do well, what are my chances in these types of schools? What other schools should I look at as well? Any insight or response will be highly appreciated. Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you soon!

<p>Is it also better to get the associates degree before applying to such schools or transfer upon request? If you’re interested in my high school info, I will provide that as well.</p>
<p>Engarde, thank you for your reply. Concerning awards, I don’t have much academically, However I ran track in high school and broke two records. I also plan on running when I transfer. I recieved the Eagle scout award as I stated. I attended the scout Jamboree in 2005 and served as senior patrol leader for my local scout troop. I am currently in the college’s honor society. I have a chance at becoming the President of it next school year (I may be the only one running). I am passionate about business internationally. I hope to endeavor on business ventures across the globe. I am thinking of double majoring in international business and economics as well. I am leaving my options opened as to transfers right now. I live on the east coast and I don’t mind going attending a university that’s a distance from my home. If you have any suggestions on what schools I should look into, do not hessitate to suggest. Thanks.</p>
<p>If anyone can contribute to this post, I would greatly appreciate it I’m transferring soon, so I need to know what my chances are to these colleges as a transfer student. Thanks.</p>
