Community College Transfer Possibilities

Transfer Students

<p>I'm 90% sure I'll be attending either UF or a small liberal arts honors school in FL. I'd still like to apply to a few reach schools for the sake of curiousity.</p>

<p>Any chance at these schools?</p>

<p>chances are very slim for the uc schools. You need to complete 60 units in order to transfer without them looking at your highschool grades and your highschool grades are very bad.</p>

3

<p>Right. When applying for transfer I'll have completed 60+ credits but my chances are still slim to nil.</p>

<p>Write a good essay for cornell/urbana champagin and you will get in.</p>

<p>But ***** man, I thought I turned it around</p>

<p>I went from 2.3 - 4.0 for my last 2 years of hs and first year of college.</p>

5

<p>Pffftt, my turnaround pales in comparison to yours. Your list of EC's and Internships dwarf 90% of college students. Unfortunately I don't have the contacts or resources to be so progressive.</p>

<p>Just be proactive, that's all.
And don't let anyone outwork you.</p>

7

<p>as for UC schools
you cannot apply until you will be finishing up 60 units
and
it's very slim unless you live in CA
in CA there is an IGETC <-- did i spell it right? program which makes it extremely easy to transfer in</p>

<p>Yes, it's called the IGETC.</p>
