How can I transfer to Umich Ann Arbor from an OOS CC?

Hi, I’m currently a freshmen standing in credits with about 24 and would like to apply to transfer in Spring of 2021 for Umich’s LSA Computer Science program. I currently attend Middlesex Community College in NJ. My GPA is currently 3.3 and I have 4 w’s because I unfortunately had some family issues over the past year. I will try to get it up to 3.6 by Fall of 2020 and will definitely have strong essays, letters of recommendations from people I know and rigorous classes on my transcript. As far as highschool goes here are my stats:
2.7gpa (unweighted)
980 SAT on current scale.
I know that’s absolutely pathetic but the past few years of my life have been very rough outside of school and that will probably be the topic on my essays and how I’ve evolved as a student. I was just wondering if there’s any advice and if you can chance me assuming I complete my goals by fall of next year. Thank you very much!

I’ll also have around 52 - 56 credits around then depending on the classes I take. Thank you!

I’m currently a sophomore at UMich, I would have to say it’s going to be very hard to transfer into computer science. I know you currently attend school in NJ so I’m assuming you’re not a Michigan resident. I would try to get a 3.7 GPA minimum and possibly retake the SAT

@intobuck I’m 20 years old now so do you think that’s a little too old to be retaking the SAT? Is there any other things I can do that would impress admissions?

Talk to the transfer admission office. It’s on the website. They will give you a realistic view of what can be done.
