<p>I'm a freshman at the George Washington University looking to transfer. My current major is IR, but I'm thinking about Economics as well. How would my chances be.
First Semester GPA: 3.80 (17 credits)
High School: 4.0 (Small rural high school though, APs not offered)
SAT: CR 680 Math 650 Writing 670</p>
<p>Also should I think about retaking the SATs since it's been about a year since I last took them. Thanks.</p>
<p>No need, SATS are not required for JHU, much less needed...</p>
<p>Anyways great shot</p>
<p>You're right SATs are optional, but with my scores do you think I should submit them?</p>
<p>Did you apply as an applicant from HS? AdmissionsDaniel has pointed this out many times: it is much more difficult to be accepted as a transfer applicant. Much more difficult.</p>
<p>Yes I did, but all of application ended up being messed up by my HS counselor. I spent my senior year as an exchange student and because of the difference in schooling systems my counselor wasn't sure if my HS was going to accept all of the work I did there and ended up telling the schools in my Mid-year Report that I may not graduate. I don't know if this actually made a difference but the results of my college applications turned out very bizarre e.g. I was accepted by GW with $45,000 in scholarships, but denied by American.</p>
<p>Hi, if anyone has anymore advice that would help a lot, thanks.</p>
<p>Your scores look good, but transfer Admissions at Hopkins is EXTREMELY competitive. The percent admitted is usually around 7%. They base their acceptances to some extent on how many spaces open up after freshman year, and since they overenrolled the class of 2013 by about 100, I would guess that there will only be a handful of spots (if any) available for someone in your shoes.</p>
