<p>Thanks Tulare…she is OOS…and I’m not kidding myself - I know it worked in her favor. Can’t argue with that out of state tuition! I am thrilled for her though. We’ve (mostly me) have been worried because of the budget cuts in California and reduced enrollment at our CSUs. She would have been a shoe in at most of them a couple of years ago. We visited Oregon in the spring and she really loved it. I loved it…I would have loved to have gone to school there!</p>

<p>Thanks also for the housing advice. She sent in her housing application on Nov 2. Trying not to leave anything to chance!</p>

<p>Yeah…it’s a relief, especially with a kid who is anxious by nature!</p>

<p>gaychia… good on ya… a couple of questions… for your sat, was the score out of 2400 or 1600 and was your gpa weighted ? … as well, what part of the country, and will you accept admission and go to oregon ? … we loved the place and my son is on the program if they admit… although… New Hampshire beckons…</p>

<p>gaychia, I’m an Oregon alum who is pretty active in the university now (almost 25 years after graduating) and I cannot say enough good things about it. Your daughter will love it, and you have every reason to be thrilled for her. Like you, I’m a Californian with a freshman daughter in college who also went out of state in part due to the state of our system here. I think you and your daughter have made a great decision and I wish her all the best.</p>

<p>We are from California. SAT was based on the 2400 scale (her scores were not great - she has severe test anxiety) GPA is unweighted. I am really thrilled for her because her stats really don’t reveal how very hard she works. I will be forever grateful to the adcom for giving her this opportunity!</p>

<p>Was you son accepted to New Hampshire?</p>

65

<p>Thanks for the reply… no word yet from NHamp…he’s also looking at Clarkson, Miami/ohio and Vermont… although Oregon is his fave… we’re in the waiting mode</p>

66

<p>gaychia, do you know what her weighted GPA is? Was it 3.4 or above?</p>

67

<p>Hi! I’m also from CA, and I’m looking to transfer there as well… can anyone chance me?</p>

<p>I’ll be applying Fall 2010 from CC!</p>

<p>Current GPA: 3.6 ( going to keep it like this or higher!)
ECs: 100+ hrs community service, Church group, volunteer in all church activities.</p>

<p>I honestly dont have much :frowning: would I be able to include stuff I did in H.S?? Cause I was in everything in all my h.s. years…</p>

<p>I’m also a 1st generation college student & Hispanic.</p>

<p>I’m sorry, but I don’t know much about admission for transfer students. Here’s the link to the UofO transfer admission site:
[Transfer</a> Admission Requirements | Office of Admissions](<a href=“http://admissions.uoregon.edu/transfer/apply/requirements]Transfer”>Transfer Requirements | Admissions)</p>

<p>My daughter was a transfer student. I’m not sure, but unless you’re applying to the honors college, I don’t think extra-curriculars are a big factor in admissions. I really don’t think you have to worry about that.</p>

<p>There are some course requirements which are basically college composition and math at a college level. (Remedial math classes won’t count toward this requirement.) And check the link Tulare provided for any other requirements.</p>

<p>Seems to me you’ll do just fine!</p>

<p>Hey, it’s a fun time to be a Duck right now, especially if you’re a football fan. My daughter, who is not a football fan, is just trying to weather the storm of excitement that’s swirling around her. ;)</p>

<p>corb67. I think you have a good chance of getting in. I had a 19 on the ACT and a 3.72 gpa and I got in for fall 10.</p>
