<p>Hey CC</p>

<pre><code> So I am currently attending UW-Platteville(freshman), and applied to transfer to UW-Madison fall 2013. I was wondering if CC could weigh in on my chances of being accepted. So these are my stats,
</code></pre>

<p>College<br>
4.0 GPA 16credits<br>
tutoring math spring semester<br>
German Club member<br>
letter of recommendation </p>

<p>High school
~3.55GPA

<p>Here's the Oh God Why part..... They dont require a ACT score for transfers (i didnt know) I sent in my 24 ACT... o.O will this mess up my chances?</p>

<p>I don’t think it will weigh in too much since they’re not required. With a 4.0, you seem more than qualified for Madison. Even thought your ACT is weak, your high school stats would have made you a competitive applicant as a senior. Remember that since your applying as a sophomore transfer, they will use both your high school and college stats. If it was me, I would continue to keep your grades up for another semester/two semester, then apply to even better schools as a junior transfer. The fact that your already starting on a good foot will only make that easier.</p>
