Applying to College

<p>Hi, everyone
I am currently attending one of known California community college and I am now planning to transfer to Johns hopkins University for physics major. I started this college 2011 fall and this is my second quarter and I have ACT score :32, 3 SAT subject score which are 790,790,700 and 5 APs. Including AP credit, I can fulfill 85 credit before transfer.
And my first quarter GPA was 4.0 and I try to keep this score at this quarter also.</p>

<p>Actually I take 5~7 classes per quarter. However, the thing that I am so afraid is I only can take two mathmatics coruse(Calculus corses) and one chemistry and 2 physics class(I can finish all physics courses given by community college, though with AP tests) because I can only attend this college for 1 year.
I am planning to transfer in just one year and jI am curious that how the Johns hopkins University transfer evaluator see my grades. That is I have only just some mathematics and physics and chemstry courses less than other applicant who spend their college years more than me.</p>

<p>Do I have enoguh chance to get in Johns hopkins? I am actually wander whether I can transfer or not. my ap credit is 24 units quarter and my community college credit would be 60 including spring quarter. It looks like somewhat sophomore transfer.</p>

<p>So, I would like to know your opinion about my transfer. :)</p>

<p>My question is why you’re in a community college in the first place. Financial reasons?</p>

<p>Yes, 2 years saving or 1 years saving for sophomore.</p>

<p>Call Johns Hopkins and ask. They know if you are eligible to transfer and can best advise you.</p>

<p>Look at section D of JHU’s Common Data Set, beginning on page 15 of this document: <a href=“Registrar - Homewood Schools (KSAS & WSE) | Office of the Registrar | Johns Hopkins University”>Registrar - Homewood Schools (KSAS & WSE) | Office of the Registrar | Johns Hopkins University;

<p>It looks as if you qualify to transfer. On the other hand, gaining admission to selective universities as a transfer student is often notoriously difficult. In 2010, JHU admitted 79 out of 831 transfer applicants, or about 9.5% By contrast, the same year they admitted 3799 out of 18,459 freshman applicants, or about 20.6%. It kind of seems as if you certainly have a chance, but almost nobody who’s applying to transfer to Hopkins actually has a really great chance.</p>
