<p>Im a sophomore at Emory with a 3.85 overall GPA. I play a varsity sport, have a job on campus, and am involved in religious life. My HS stats arent superb: 27 ACT, 3.5 GPA but in HS i did have come spectacular (in my opinion) EC's. I'm interested in the humanities and would like to go to the University of Pennsylvania for the location, interdisciplinary opportunities, and because I believe it would provide the academic challenge I am looking for. So, do you think I have a shot of getting in?</p>
<p>*some, not come-lol sorry im ocd</p>
<p>Yes, you definitely have a shot. Penn accepts between 11% and 13% of transfers each year. This, however, is quite a deceiving number. Most of the transfers I talked to had 3.8+ (everyone but one person), and between 1400 - 1500 on their SATs. HS GPA is typically unimportant if you've done well in college. If you can come up with a compelling reason to transfer (Emory doesn't have as much opportunity in ___ as Penn, etc.), then I'd say you have a great shot.</p>
