<p>Hello everyone,</p>

<p>I am currently a GMU sophomore looking to transfer to the McIntire Program @ UVA for my junior year. My stats are:</p>

<p>· GPA: 3.95, econ major</p>

<p>· Extracurricular: Investment Club (I have more, but this is only one where I might be an officer).</p>

<p>· Work: Part time intern at a reputable financial firm. Other part time jobs. </p>

<p>· Courses taken: Intro/ intermediate econ courses (A+ in almost all), Calculus 1&2, Accounting, and a bunch of gen-eds.</p>

<p>· High school stats: GPA was around 3.6, 2090 SAT. </p>

<p>Applied to UVA in HS and was wait listed. Am a VA resident, and have met most of the McIntire prereqs. I write one helluv'an essay. </p>

<p>What are my chances of acceptance? Any additional advice? </p>

<p>Thanks very much guys.</p>

<p>I think they’re pretty good. Your GPA is very strong and you weren’t too weak out of high school. Also you have internships at a reputable financial firm. The only issue might be your lack of more related clubs but I doubt that will cost you. I think you should be able to get it.</p>

<p>So I kinda put the transfer thing in the back of my mind until break… Does anyone have any additional advice? Anyone else applying to McIntire out of GMU/VCCS for the Fall? Good luck if you are!</p>
