<p>I am looking to transfer out of GW and Brown is one of my top choices…my reasons are academic (large classes, pre-professional attitude here) as well as locational. I am an international affairs major and am very interested in Brown’s IR program.</p>

<p>SATs:</p>

<p>Math 650
Critical Reading 710
Writing 790
combined: 2150</p>

<p>SATII:</p>

<p>US History- 730</p>

<p>GPA: 4.35/5- very competitive public high school</p>

<p>First semester at GW: 3.9 to 4.0 (most likely 4.0)</p>

<p><strong>I AM APPLYING FOR FINANCIAL AID</strong></p>

<p>Do I have any chance whatsoever? I’d appreciate any thoughts.</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>I don’t know…alot of freshman applicants have stats way higher than this and EC/leadership to match. What about your ECs?</p>

<p>College ECs? I have a pretty significant amount of volunteering hours here.</p>

<p>Just racking up volunteering hours doesn’t count for much – it’s what you accomplish and what you learn while doing so.</p>

<p>Don’t know the answer, but the focus will be on your GPA & need for financial aid as well as your reason for wanting to transfer to Brown.</p>
