Transfer Chances: Harvard, Carnegie, Cornell

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hey,</p>

<p>Currently a first semester sophmore. Here are some of my stats so far..</p>

<p>SAT: 1300 (700M/600V)
GPA: 3.45 (this semester, I estimate to get a 3.75)
Extra:
- I own a small internet company the grosses $200k+ yearly since I was 17
- Entrepreneurship club
- Real estate club
- Investment club</p>

<p>I'm currently a finance major at Bentley College but am looking to switch computer science with a business minor. I've seriously been having a tough time maintaining a business, while juggling college. I was also really disappointed with my grades freshman year and it was partly due to bouts of depression I was suffering due to certain events in my life, as well as the heavy work load.</p>

<p>I'm thinking I will get a 3.75-3.8 this semester as I've been putting my business on hold a little for a possible transfer. I am also thinking about taking next semester off, working on my business and then returning in the fall to try to aim for a 4.0. So the best case scenario is that I end up with a 3.68 for my first two years in college.</p>

<p>Can anyone enlighten me on my chances?</p>

<ul>
<li>Very much appreciated</li>
</ul>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>why would you go to college with 200K a year?</p>

3

<p>Backup plan, nothing is a certainty.</p>

4

<p>harvard education as a back up is kinda eh.. idk nvm</p>

5

<p>alright then...</p>

6

<p>how is it a "small" internet company if it makes more than 200k a year??</p>

7

<p>That's one heck of a small internet company. (Is it legal? :P)</p>

<p>lol yeah really.
are you selling something illegal? ;]
but seriously, what's your internet company about?</p>

<p>hmm as for chances, i think you look good for cornell.
i don't know much about carnegie, so i couldn't judge.
harvard is always a reach for everyone.</p>

<p>In my experience, any internet company under a million in revenue is considered "small", over a million is usually "medium". That is what I am aiming for.</p>

<p>No, it is not illegal. We just own about 24 websites targetted towards the youth demographic and serve tons of advertising on these pages. It reaches nearly 700,000 different people a day. I really don't want to get into the specifics but I can assure you that it is all legit.</p>

<p>I appreciate the predictions so far.</p>

<p>Keep em' coming please!</p>

<p>Thanks again</p>

<p>Anymore evaluations?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

11

<p>i'd say your best chance is with that hook of yours...the business company...so you're going to have to elaborate on that..to them at least if not to us.</p>

12

<p>That is what I am thinking.</p>

13

<p>why don't you look at Wharton at Penn? Or MSB at Georgetown?</p>

14

<p>What do you guys think my chances at NYU are?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>
