<p>Your GPA/SATs are still too low from a CC.
I suppose your recs are good, but GPA is more important.
Most people who are applying from CC to those schools have 4.0 or near a 4.0.</p>

<p>However, you never know!
Rate my chances please. =)</p>

<p>i agree with alangreenspan. you are still in the range for transfer to those schools, but youre on the low side of the range with ur SAT scores and GPA, though ur EC's look pretty good. georgetown id give u a good shot if ur applying to the college and not SFS though. but again, as u are in the range for all the schools, go for it.</p>

<p>shouldn't you have some backups? </p>

<p>or are you transferring just for the prestige?</p>
