Hi I plan applying to Syracuse as a transfer student with an intended major of Mech Eng after this current fall semester. When I send my applications I will have completed 3 full time semesters at a community college in NJ that im curently enrolled at. I figured I could use this resource to help weigh the odds. My high school transcripts are horrific due to very bad family issues during the time, but upon entering community college I made a fresh start. I am a resident of NY state, and I have worked full time so far in college and still currently do as a professional custom cabinet maker. My tight schedule doesn’t leave a lot of time for extra curricular’s but some I plan to list are, “Fine woodworking”, “Hobby Machinist”, “Piano” “Guitar”
The classes I have completed are
Intermediate Algebra
C
(I did poorly on the final)
Finite Mathematics
B
HIS-114 20 Cent US Since WWII
A
Macro Economics
B+
Precal.Col.Alg&trg
A
General Psychology
A
20 Cent US to WWII
B+
Intro Philosophy
A
My current classes are with grades I am expecting:
Calculus I
B
Machine Tool Principles I
A
Physics I
B+
Problem Solving Using Technology
A
my current GPA is a 3.49 and should go up to a 3.523 after this semester, I know I don’t have all kinds of AP credits and lists of extra curricular’s, but when you work 40+ hours a week and go to school as a full time student, you eventually just run out of time.
