Chances for external transfer to McCombs next year

<p>Ideally I would be moving to Austin this month, but I missed the deadline and must wait another year, so this would be for the Fall 2012 semester.</p>

<p>I just wrapped up 61 hours at a CC with a GPA of 3.93, BUT I need to finish some indicator courses to transfer, so I would take my last two indicator courses (Calculus II & Microeconomics) at my CC this Fall semester, which will give me a total of 68 hours and a 3.94 GPA.</p>

<p>After that Fall semester, I would take a break from school to keep my hours down, which is what a UT advisor recommended I should do to "stay competitive". She said I would just need to explain the gap in time. To keep myself busy, I would hopefully land an internship or get another job in addition to the part-time job I already have.</p>

<p>So, I don't think this is your typical external transfer situation... what do you think my chances are?</p>

<p>At the time of application I will have:</p>

<p>68 hours
3.94 GPA (with A's in all indicator courses)
Good essays (at least)
Rec Letter from Intro to Business teacher who likes me quite a bit
Probably another letter from my micro/macroeconomics teacher
A valid explanation for my gap semester
Only B was in ENGL 1302/RHE 309K (in my first Fall semester / put forth MINIMAL effort / should have 4.0 / smh)
1 course withdrawal: Intro to Engineering (was considering Engineering at the time / wasn't for me)</p>

<p>Let me know if you desire any more info. Thanks.</p>

<p>Anybody have any comments at all?</p>

<p>bumping this one more time…</p>

<p>anybody?</p>

<p>Perhaps some volunteer work would enhance your resume.</p>
