<p>Hello! I'm a college freshman right now and I'm applying as a transfer into a few colleges (Emerson, Ithaca, URI, Suffolk..) and I've already been accepted to Ithaca URI and Suffolk.. just waiting on Emerson. </p>
<p>Now, my stats aren't the highest (2.59 High School GPA, 3.88 College GPA, 1710 Composite SAT), but I sent some really, really strong pieces of writing along with my application. (as well as four really strong letters of recommendation, tons of great extra curricular, and a super essay)</p>
<p>I sent: a vivid poem about life, a one-act play, and a short film I wrote. I've had them all read over by people with English degrees more than one and I even had the play produced. </p>
<p>Now, my question to all of you is.. how much can sending in samples of my work help towards getting accepted into my dream school? (Emerson)</p>
<p>Please, and thank you!</p>
<p>OH, by the way, if this matters, I'm applying there to the Writing, Literature, & Publishing program (creative writing)</p>
