Starting to get nervous... would appreciate some opinions

Transfer Students
1

<p>I'm applying to NYU and Barnard College as a Spring transfer, and I'm getting jittery just waiting around at this point, so I would appreciate it if anyone could give me their opinion on my chances of admission.</p>

<p>HS GPA: 3.6ish UW, 3.9 weighted, full IB program
College GPA: 3.87 after 32 credits (2 semesters)... Barnard will also see mid-year reports which will be all As, bringing my predicted GPA to 3.91, I believe. I'm also in my school's Honors Program.
SATs (old): 1420... 730 v, 690 m</p>

<p>ECs:
-Lots of theatre (acting, backstage work, stage management, tech work, costume/makeup design, directing) 9,10, 11, 12 and currently
-Varsity Volleyball 10, 11, 12... was captain, won a few tournament team awards, Coaches Award and MVP
-Varsity Soccer 9, 10, 11, 12 and in college
-MUN 10, 11, 12... was Deputy Ambassador for one delegation and was admitted to the Conference newspaper staff at The Hague
-was on the SGA in HS and the Community Service Council in HS
-various community service activities throughout HS and currently a member of Campus Lions Club
-an editor of HS newspaper, and maybe a couple other things I'm not remembering right now.</p>

<p>Academic: National Merit "commended" student, Honors Program here, Dean's list one semester, Presidential Scholars list another semester. </p>

<p>Work: Teacher at a Language Immersion camp over the summer (I received a bilingual certificate from IB in French); intern in GaTech's Microsystems Packaging program; some various work as a camp counselor.</p>

<p>I'm applying to double major in both schools. At NYU the majors I have indicated are "Politics" and "Dramatic Literature, Theatre History and Cinema." At Barnard, "Political Science" and "English" with a concentration in either Theatre or Film.</p>

<p>Sorry for another "what are my chances" post, but since lots of us are in the same boat I figured it couldn't hurt to ask. Thanks in advance, and good luck to everyone.</p>

<p>To me, you sound like you've a good chance at both. If you wrote good essays and got good recs, I'd say you're in.</p>

<p>Thanks... I think my essays are strong (I've been told they are at least), and while my dean recs are completely impersonal (I go to UGA, and my advisor didn't have access to all my records so that one rec had to go through three separate departments), my teacher said if they listened to her advice they'd have "no choice" but to take me, which was very encouraging. Thanks again for your input :)</p>

<p>i second escape's opinion.</p>

<p>assuming good essays, you have a great chance</p>

<p>Thanks! I hope you're both right. I'm getting nervous though because my HS counselor didn't get my transcript to either school the first time she sent them (odd I know), so being that I'm anxious about applications already I'm now even more worried that because mine will be reviewed later due to the late transcript it will decrease my chances of getting in. Probably mostly just paranoia, but still makes it a little harder to sleep well at night.</p>
