Your college GPA is fantastic and will have much weight. Your essays are REALLY critical, as are your college recommendations. They are very big on fit. Besides being very bright, you need be intensely - fervently intellectual, open to academic challenges, be research oriented, able to thrive in a very intimate scholarly setting, etc. The whole Reed Culture thing. Get the picture? So it goes well beyond your numbers. The most important one - College GPA - being wonderful.
Hey, I know this is an old thread. Have you heard from Reed? I’m also applying to transfer from a CC – I have a 4.0 but abysmal high school GPA/record (only 1 AP but got a 5) and ended up getting GED. I haven’t gotten my decision yet because my SAT is still being scored… But I’m curious to know whether you got in.
Yup i got in!!!You?
ZH1064, where/how did you find out? I haven’t heard back yet?
@victorose5 I got my admissions box on wednesday night and an email friday morning
Still haven’t heard back yet. Anyone the same?
Sorry for late reply and congrats! I was waitlisted. Reed is my top choice, though, so I’m really trying to get accepted from the waitlist.
I’m in! Will I be seeing any of you at Reed next year?
