<p>Hi CC. I got accepted into my dream university last month and am stoked to go. I have always been homeschooled, my whole life, and got my GED and took ACTs and SATs this summer. I applied as a freshman, (not a TRANSFER) even though I'm in a community college. Well, I managed to score high enough on the ACT to land a $6000 merit scholarship as well as acceptence into my university. </p>
<p>Now, transfer student's going in to my U must have 24+ post-highschool credits. The reason I didn't apply as a transfer, is because I thought I wouldn't have 24+ credits. Well I just found out that I might be able to transfer 25 of my college credits to my U, AND if I could do so (at a GPA of 3.74+), I could get a 2 year full tuition scholarship insted of the $6000 scholarship. (My GPA at my CC is 3.85 right now). I have four classes worth 13 of the planned transferable credits planned at my CC for spring of 2010 which will end around the middle of MAY.</p>
<p>So, this evening I checked out my university's policy about the transfer scholarships, and it states: "Scholarships are effective for fall semester 2010 and are subject to change. Only students who apply and meet the requirements by February 1 are guaranteed the amounts listed below... applications received between February 2 and April 1 will be considered based on alternate parameters and available funding... Consideration will not be given to any applicant after April 1"</p>
<p>But I won't know my grades until the middle of MAY sometime... Is there no hope for me to recieve the 2 years paid tuition scholarship? Is this type of situation typicly dealt with Community College students? I'm soo confused...</p>
