im applying as a sophomore transfer and am completely nervous for the decisions. Do you know when they come out? And what my chances are? I go to UCI and have a 3.4 cumulative and got a 3.67 last quarter. I got accepted in high school too. I applied to School of Arts and Sciences.</p>
<p>Sorry about assuming the class of 2015 is ALL rich kids from Cali. Ironically, S got the same vibe when attending the preview day a few weeks ago, though he used different words to describe the attitude. Anyone know why alumni giving at SCU is so low?</p>
<p>I have already been accepted to SCU as a transfer student. I currently have a 3.4 gpa and currently have a C in one of my classes. I don’t know if I should stay in the class or withdraw from the class? Can my application be rescinded if my gpa drops to a 3.3 or 3.2??</p>
<p>Probably won’t be rescinded for a single C. However, only an admissions counselor from SCU can tell you for certain. Try calling/emailing Lisa Osteraas. She was very helpful during my daughter’s transfer process to SCU.</p>

<p>You know, the best anyone can say is that your stats are sufficient to get into SCU. I know several students with around a 3.3 who were accepted into Arts & Sciences. I have heard anecdotally that if a student has a very compelling personal story, they will accept them even with a bit lower gpa. With that said, I know even more that were 3.7+ who got into SCU as transfer. So the question is a bit more about who you are in your essays and your letters of recommendation that would then interest the adcoms. Did you write a passionate essay? Have strong ECs? Align with the jesuit philosophy in your essays? </p>
<p>The admission rate for 2009 transfers was a fairly high 70%, though I am somewhat convinced that students who do not require a massive amount of institutional based financial aid are likely also looked on favorably–though I have no proof of that. Until I hear otherwise, I will merely assume it because colleges in general are hurting for funds. So, if you have a strong financial profile (read: don’t need monies directly from the college) that will only help.</p>
<p>But in the end, admissions are fickle. Two students with similar profiles and one can get accepted and the other denied. You clearly meet the requirements for Arts & Sciences with your 3.4. But beyond that, all I can say is that a 70% admittance rate is at least a hopeful thing.</p>
<p>I know a guy at my HS who applied this year, is going to attend, and actually got a full-ride. Pretty good grades I’d say, probably above a 3.7+ at least, decent ECs, minority, and I would think has a high income bracket.</p>
<p>I was curious as to SCU’s policy on transfer students from UCs.</p>
<p>I am attending UC Santa Cruz as a freshman this fall, but I am intending on applying to Santa Clara University as soon possible since I am extremely interested in its Communication program. I understand that it is possible to apply as a transfer ungergrad student for Winter Term. Is it possible for me to apply to SCU this October?</p>
<p>accepted as of like 3pm yesterday. i live near the school
3.1 gpa, 62 units by the end of the semester. political science major.</p>
