<p>Anyone else applying to Penn for transfer? I'm currently a freshman at Georgetown. I'm an African American male. Most likely will have a GPA around 3.6 this semester(sigh, astronomy). 1340 SAT I, 690, 630, 630 SAT IIs. I'm in the GU Symphony Orchestra, the Admissions Ambassadors Program, Campus Ministry, and i've written a few Viewpoints for the paper. I also work at University Information Services, where I work the Service Desk(helping w/ virus, spyware, adware and other pc related problems), and Hoya Computing(lending software, taking repair requests, and helping ppl choose computers and other related hardware. I'm also the informal Apple specialist,lol). I also was chosen for the Emerging Leaders program next semester. I'll also send in a music sample(i play viola). I'm applying to the College for psych. I also want to do a healthcare management and BBB interschool minor, b/c i'm really interested in healthcare management, and i took healthcare in america this semester. I also want to take some engineering classes, but Gtown doesn't have any. I applied to Penn before and was denied, so I'm applying again. I'm hoping to get a rec from my healthcare professor, as well as my psych professor for next semester(i took gen psych w/ him 2 summers ago, hopefully he remembers me,lol). </p>

<p>Anyone else applying to Penn?</p>

<p>what don't you like about georgetown? that's one of my top choices to transfer to! is it they just don't have the programs you want?</p>

<p>exactly! If Georgetown allowed us to take any class in any school, or had some engineering classes, and had better facilities for the sciences, then i'd gladly stay. I love it, I have friends here, etc., but for what i want to do, Penn(or Cornell, which i have guaranteed transfer), would be a better fit.</p>
