Suffolk University in Boston

<p>I'm applying as a transfer student. 3.6weighted high school gpa, probably 3.2 or 3.3 uw. In my first semester in college I got all A's and B's and had a 3.3 gpa, but in my second semester I got a D and a C in addition to As and Bs and it really brought my GPA down to I think a 2.7 or 2.9 or something. I freaked out at this and have been studying very hard this semester (my third) and am getting all As and Bs again. I hope to bring it back up to a 3.0 at least by the end of this semester. I am applying to BU, but I don't think I have a very strong chance at getting in so Suffolk I hope is my safety. I have a 31 composite ACT with a 35 English, 32 Math, 30 Science, 28 Reading. </p>

<p>Also I took loads of APs in high school and got 3s and 4s on all of them.</p>

<p>My volunteer work involves:
3 years at a humane society (I still dedicate a few hours a week)
I tutored undereducated people seeking their GED at the local YWCA (a women's shelter) over the summer and most of my Senior year in high school
I tutored inner-city children for a semester</p>

<p>My leaderships include: Camp counselor at a Lego camp over the summer before my Freshman year of college.
This is work and leadership but I interned at the Nashville Metro Health Department. I would go around the county trapping mosquitoes, then determining their species. If they were the right species I would sex them (only the females bite) and we would test them in the lab for West Nile Virus. If a West Nile positive bug was found we would go on the local news and warn the community, as well as provide safety tips about mosquitoes and West Nile.</p>

<p>Since my Junior year in high school I have worked as a receptionist at a radiology practice, working up to 15 hours a Saturday.</p>

<p>I am not applying for any scholarships of financial aid of any kind if that makes a difference.
Think I have a chance with Suffolk?</p>

<p>Also was wondering about the transfer decision sessions. Do they offer any of these over the phone or do I have to be at the Boston Campus to do this? I’m asking because I am in Nashville so scheduling a visit to them isn’t easy.</p>
