I am a 23 year old married student with a child I gave birth to via an emergency c-section. I started college just 4 months after giving birth, and have a 4.0 since starting but I still feel like my application and life is radically uninteresting. I don’t play any sports, although I have been involved in a few research conferences (as a presenter) in the last year and have maintained club membership in a club relevant to my career goals. Beyond that, I have volunteered with three different organizations consistently. I guess when I am living day to day in my own shoes, it just seems so normal and like I won’t stand out. I am applying to transfer to my dream school of Stanford from a Community College in California and want to know what my chances are.
Schools I am applying to for transfer:
UCLA
UCSB
UC Davis
UC San Diego
SDSU
Yale
Cornell
Stanford

UNC Chapel Hill
