You sound like a very qualified applicant! Best of luck to you! Have you submitted your application?
Good luck to you too! Not yet, I’m still working on my personal statement. What about you?
Hey guys, I tried logging into ecampus today and it wouldnt work, have you guys been able to log in?
@peony13 Yes, I submitted in December!
@ngangela I’m having the same issue. I contacted eCampus about it, but am still waiting for a response. I’m thinking maybe it means they are updating our portals…? Maybe wishful thinking!
Accepted! Greatest day ever - I have dreamt of this moment for years! Best of luck to all transfer applicants!
Congrats @searchforhome !
@searchforhome woah how did you get your decision already??
@emorylove97 They do their transfer decisions on a rolling basis. I heard originally they try to get the decision a month after you apply. I assume right now transfer applicant volume is not as high as it will be in the coming months, so decisions are quicker. So it took about a month and half for me to find out!
Accepted as well! This is amazing
@searchforhome Congrats to us! Will you be going there in the Fall? I am waiting for Financial aid to be posted on the website.
@ngangela congrats to you too! Do you mind sharing your stats?
@peony13

Previous internships added onto my application as well.
I actually did not take the recommended math classes so I was quite surprised I still got in.

I also sent in my HS transcript showing my400+ hours of community service but my gpa was very low.
Good luck to you!
Congratulations @ngangela !!
@peony13 Keep us posted on how your progress applying goes. I wish you the best! You are very qualified.
All other transfer applicants, feel free to keep posting your stats here and asking questions!
@searchforhome I was wondering if you know if we could take summer classes right away or we would have to wait til fall?
