<p>Hi, I would like to transfer to a better business program next fall (Junior Transfer). I'm currently attending a decent NY state school (SUNY) and have a 3.6 GPA. I did poorly my first semester due to family issues (separation of parents - not putting blame on it, it was my fault and I fixed it.), but received a 3.8 and 4.0 in the proceeding semesters. I also received direct admission into my current university's b-school, so many of my courses match up with NYU's prerequisites/recommended courses. The one prerequisite I don't really fulfill is the calc, I took intro calc instead of calc 1. I have had multiple internships. My most recent was with a small firm in Manhattan, we set up conferences for individuals interested in the high frequency trading industry. This summer I have lined up an internship at a well known network-communication firm in Tokyo. I may also be interning/working at GS japan for 1-2 days a week while im there (Not definite, but my father is pretty high up so I'm hoping I can go in once or twice a week to at least observe the trading floor). I am a member of a business club and the club lacrosse team. I attend a couple community service/fund raising events each year (Not that much). I also have legacy at NYU, my great grandfather received his PHD there. How much will legacy help at NYU?</p>
<p>I will be submitting 3 letters of recommendation
-Accounting professor (105 average in class, top 1%)
-Sociology professor (will speak about my writing ability/no full year english offered at my university so he will give them some insight)
-Employer (my influence and performance at his company/how I mentored new interns). </p>
<p>Please let me know what you guys think.</p>
