<p>I'm currently a first-semester college sophomore majoring in psychology. I'm looking to change my major to creative writing, but my school doesn't have a very strong program for that. Therefore, I'm looking to transfer for the fall of 2008.</p>
<p>Characteristics of ideal college:
-Located in the city (preferably New York, Boston, or San Francisco but really anywhere that's safe to walk around in)
-Strong creative writing program
-Offers a lot of help to students in finding internships </p>
<p>It would also be amazing (but not necessary) if the college didn't require a high school transcript or SAT scores, as I was unable to perform those to the best of my abilities due to medical reasons.</p>
<p>My college credentials are as follows:
GPA: 3.60, but that will be raised up to a 3.7 by the end of the semester
Awards: Alpha Lambda Delta, psychology recognition award
Extracurriculars: Vice president of my dorm, member of my class council, mentor twice (last semester and this year) at local schools
Work Experience: Currently work at an office on campus. I also worked at a (national) store in the mall, where I was one of the top sales associates in the company. The vice-president brought many of my ideas back to the corporate office to be distributed throughout the company.</p>
<p>For high school:
GPA: 2.6
SAT: 1100 (560 on verbal and 540 on math)
Extracurriculars: Destination Imagination, a creative, team-building, problem-solving organization. I was involved in this for ten years and was awarded the Spirit Award my senior year.</p>
<p>If anyone has any suggestions for colleges to apply to that would be a good fit, I'd greatly appreciate it! I'm feeling very much in the dark right now, so any help you can provide would be amazing!</p>
<p>Thank you!! :]</p>
