<p>Hi. I am really wanting to transfer to NYU (like a million other people), I'm thinking Gallatin or Arts and Science.</p>
<p>-I am currently at a CC in southern ca, my second year, and I have a 3.9 cumulative but, I'm hoping to bump it up a little after this semester.</p>
<p>-I have taken a less traditional route with my education, went to a fashion trade school right out of high school, quit after a year and then took a year off.</p>
<p>-My high school GPA definitely was nothing impressive and I didnt take any standardized tests.</p>
<p>-I dont have any EC's because I work around 50 hours a week (does this count as an EC to admissions?).</p>
<p>-I'm completely financially independent and live on my own. I am also of American Indian descent.</p>
<p>Am I living in lala land to think that I have a chance? Feel free to be brutally honest.</p>
