Hey everyone! I’m looking to transfer to either UMass Amherst, Uconn, Villanova and Northeastern. I currently attend Merrimack College as a second semester sophomore. I’m looking to become a Biology major at these schools. What are my chances? Heres my stats…
-3.9 GPA (as a health science major)
-Deans List every semester
-Anatomy tutor for 1 semester
-volunteered one semester weekly helping middle schoolers with math and science
-volunteered weekly another semester at IMEC (a medical supply packing company)
-Was a biology class study group leader (helped classmates study for exams)
-Volunteered at my schools “Mack Gives Back” day of community service
-Strong Recommendation letter
-volunteering again this semester
-Participating and raising money for my schools relay for life
Also, I might need to take an extra semester, so money can be an issue. This sounds like a stupid question but do transfer students usually get good academic scholarships?
