First, the long intro describing my credentials.

I am currently an undergraduate student finishing up my AA degree in Florida with a concentration in Computer Science/Software Engineering. I currently have about a year left, and I currently have a 3.4 GPA. I speak English, French, and some Spanish, and have made the Dean’s honors list several times. I have several extracurricular activities that I have been apart of such as volunteer beach cleanups and volunteering at the Humane Society. I also have some collegiate extracurricular activities such as being Vice President of the UAA (Urban Arts Association) at my college, and being the SGA chairman of the UAA at my college. I also have at least several professors willing to write me Letters of Recommendation to the universities I apply to. In my off time, I spend my time researching the field of Nanotechnology, and am wishing to get a paper that I am currently writing published. I am also working with a few of my professors at my current institution regarding the research as well. When I do transfer, I will be attempting to transfer into the Computer Science program, and quite possibly double major with Biomedical Engineering.

What are my chances of getting accepted?

The 3.4 GPA is sort of low for Ohio State’s transfer process, but I think you definitely have a chance. Ohio State is already very competitive, and is getting more competitive year by year! Good luck!

I’ve never heard that a 3.4 GPA is low for a transfer, and I’m a junior at OSU currently. It is much easier to transfer into OSU than it is to get accepted as an incoming freshman.

In fact, your stats are way above the average transfer that I’ve seen. I think you’ll get in easily.
