<p>Hello past and present higher education students and graduates!</p>
<p>I've been reading many of these "Chance me" and Transfer threads. Needless to say I'm beginning to become disillusioned. Everyone has these great GPA's and I'm sitting on a 2.75 that I'm trying to turn in to a 3.0. A family member of mine (who is a UC Graduate and double major) tells me that getting in with bad grades is definitely possible. I'm also 20 years old, if that even matters.</p>
<p>After hearing this, I've been dreaming for the past year-and-a-half of transfering to a school like a UC, CAL or SUNY as a Business Management/Administration Major. I'd like to apply specifically to SUNY Binghamton. I understand it is a top-notch public University, but I have this burning feeling that I can get in.</p>
<p>My first few semesters at the Community College were horrendous. So much so that I had to waive my first semester. After a newly found inspiration to continue my education I have been able to progressively raise my grades every semester. My past two semesters have been 3.0 and 3.17. I've already got about 45 UC eligible credits so I don't believe I have much more GPA boosting time.</p>
<pre><code>Some Misc Questions. Do I need to take the SATs to transfer out-of-state, or even in-state? What are my chances of transferring out of state to New York?
