Do I have a chance of transferring into UPenn?

I was homeschooled and started Community College at 15. My CC placement exams scored me in the highest bracket waiving all math prerequisites. I am currently 16, about to finish up my first year of college, and am on track to finish up my Associate Degree in Business Administration in May 2019, at 17 years old. My plan is to apply for Fall 2019 admission at UPenn.

Current GPA - 3.6 (hoping to raise that to 3.7 by the close of this semester)
SAT - 1400

Extras -

  • competitive dancer for 11 years and currently rehearse 30-40 hours a week
  • played the saxophone in a local band for the past 7 years.
  • tutor local homeschool k-12 children in Math
  • active member of Phi Theta Kappa Honors Society on my current campus
  • maintained Deans list and the honors program for both semesters.
  • volunteer work for Toys for Tots

Future plans

  • run for a leader position in Phi Theta Kappa at my current college
  • after CC I plan to pursue a bachelors in Economics and a masters in finance
  • hope to become a part of UPenn’s Strictly Funk dance team
  • hope to join the West Philadelphia Tutoring Project at UPenn

TIA for any input or advice you can give me.

I hope that you are admitted. You have a very interesting profile & should be viewed as a highly desirable transfer applicant.

Please consider applying to several universities.

Thank you so much. I am afraid that my current GPA may be too low. With UPenn as my first choice, I am also applying to Cornell, NYU, Columbia, and University of Michigan.
