Hello, here are some of my stats:
Overall GPA: 4.0
Pre-Professional GPA: 4.0
Major: Biology (CLAS)
I am also volunteering at a local hospital in the NICU and ED, not sure if this will help me out much though (my goal after undergrad is medical school)
I am currently at FSCJ (Florida State College at Jacksonville) getting my AA and taking the pre-reqs for the Biology major at UF. It should be completed by next Spring which is when I plan on transferring (obviously)
I do feel discouraged because I know that Biology is extremely competitive. Any input would be greatly appreciated as I am wondering my chances, if there is anything I can do to strengthen my app before Spring, and if the volunteering will help my application to get into UF.
Thanks!
I also forgot to mention that I got my GED. Will this factor affect my chances of getting in?
Getting your GED will not affect your admission as a transfer student. If you didn’t take foreign language in college then you need to send your high school transcript to show proof you’ve met the requirement.
