Applying to College

<p>Im a sophomore at a community college right now, and I have a 3.1 GPA currently, and if i get a 4.0 this semester i will be bumped up to a 3.4. I want to attend U of I urbana champaign starting my junior year, what are my chances?</p>

<p>I also failed a class my first semester, and was put on academic probation. But the very next semester i got a 3.5 and retook the failed class and got a B. </p>

<p>I didnt do so well in high school.... 21 ACT and 2.2 GPA</p>

<p>I plan to major in cellular and molecular biology, any advice?</p>

<p>Doesn’t hurt to try. They won’t look as closely at HS with two years of college behind you, as far as I know. Good luck!</p>

<p>Assuming you are in-state (in-state are favored in transfers), and you do improve your GPA, and you have all courses required for a transfer (see <a href=“http://admissions.illinois.edu/pdf/transfer/handbook/las2.pdf[/url]”>http://admissions.illinois.edu/pdf/transfer/handbook/las2.pdf&lt;/a&gt; and scroll done to Molecular and Cellular Biology) you should have a good chance of acceptance although I would wait to file the application until after you get your first semester grades. Note, high school grades and test score are not used to determine transfer into junior year.</p>
