<p>I don't think HS ECs count. Still, I think you a fair chance of acceptance. Not great, but with a strong essay and recs, you stand a respectable chance.</p>
<p>Best of luck :)</p>
<p>I think if you can get good letters of recommendations and have an outstanding essay you can get in, those Ec's blew me away:)</p>
<p>Wow, twenty8 we kinda both replied at the same time with kinda the same answer...LOL. But yes, high school EC's dont count, but your EC's still look good in college:)</p>
<p>Yo VTEngineer, why are you transferring from VT? I might end up transferring there next year, anything you didnt like there?</p>
<p>tech doesn't look at anything except college gpa and the courses that you've taken for transfers</p>
<p>I absolutely love Virginia Tech but my family is moving to Georgia...so I'd rather be closer to my family if at all possible.</p>
<p>Sorry for posting my lame HS stats..</p>
<p>So everyone thinks that I have a decent chance for being accepted to GT Engineering (non GPA restricted)?</p>
<p>Thanks for all of the feedback...keep the responses coming.</p>
<p>Bump.......</p>
<p>Hey, did you have to take the required courses, calculus I and II? Also, English I, II, and a science lab and lecture? Do you know what kind of courses they are looking for in someone's schedule?</p>
