Community College to Emory

Transfer Students
1

<p>Hi everybody, </p>

<p>I hope to transfer to Emory in the Fall of 2013. </p>

<p>I graduated high school with a un-weighted GPA of 3.67 and a weighted GPA of 3.81 and I was in the top 10% with rank #15 of of 187.</p>

<p>ACT: 32</p>

<p>Currently, I attend a community college. I chose to go as it is the largest CC in the state, and because of a "full load" (12 hours) tuition scholarship. Another reason was because when I was applying for college, my ACT was a 26.</p>

<h2>I will have a total of 35 credits (19 Fall, 16 Spring). My GPA is currently a 4.0 and I hope to maintain that in the Spring. </h2>

<p>Here is a list of the things I did in High School:</p>

<p>9th Grade: 1st place in the regional science fair and 4th place in the state science fair. President of the Science Club. About 60 hours of Peer Tutoring; about 28 hours of Soup Kitchen.</p>

<p>10th Grade: President of the Public Speaking Team. About 60 hours of Peer Tutoring; about 28 hours of Soup Kitchen.</p>

<p>11th grade: About 100 hours of Peer Tutoring; about 28 hours of Soup Kitchen. </p>

<p>12th Grade: 1st place in the School Science Fair. 1st place in the DECA Regional competition and 2nd place in the DECA State Competition. Highest average in Pre-calculus, AP Biology, AP Macro-economics and Fundamentals of Art. Outstanding effort in AP English.
Vice President of DECA and Treasurer of Spanish Club. I was ranked as a Corporal in JROTC.</p>

<h2>About 40 hours of Peer Tutoring, and 10 hours of Community Service. (JROTC)</h2>

<p>College Stats (So far)</p>

<p>GPA: 4.0 (19 credits)
I will be taking 16 credits in the Spring, and let's go with the assumption I maintain a 4.0. </p>

<p>Calhoun Warhawk: Calhoun Warhawks are literally ambassadors for the college. </p>

<p>Learning Spanish and Hindi using Rosetta Stone. </p>

<h2>Learning coding through Learn</a> to code | Codecademy </h2>

<p>So with everything in consideration what are my chances in transferring as a Fall 2013 student? </p>

<p>I really want to get in, I love their business program, so please chance me and please advise me!</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>I hope to take the ACT again in February, just to see whether I can get it higher than a 32. </p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>

<p>I wouldn’t retake the ACT. That’s just my opinion though.</p>

<p>@ beachlover15: They won’t come to know about it if I don’t send the score right?</p>

<p>Someone told me that I don’t even have to report all my ACT scores on the Common App.</p>

<p>I can’t remember if you have to send all of them in…and I’m applying to Emory (maybe). I wouldn’t retake it.</p>
