<p>Feedback is greatly appreciated!</p>

<p>Are you only taking 12 credits this semester? And what ECs are you involved with? And for the sake of me not doing math, what does your GPA average out to with how your school does it (i.e. are there A+s or just As? etc…)?</p>

<p>I am taking 13 credits this semester</p>

<p>I am president of a dance group</p>

<p>With 31 completed credits (for freshman year, not including my most recent midterm grades), my GPA is about a 3.75</p>

<p>There are just A’s, not A+'s</p>

<p>You are totally in… If you have above a 3.6, and don’t screw up the essay, you should not have a problem.</p>

<p>Heck… It worked for me :D</p>

<p>@shmelke:</p>

<p>Really? What were your stats like? How many semester did you have under you when you applied?</p>

<p>57 credits, 4.0 GPA</p>

<p>No high school, just a GED certificate.</p>

<p>Spectacular ECs, decent essay and great recs</p>

<p>You may want to explain your lack of math. W&M likes to see that transfer applicants, especially those with several semesters of college, have taken classes across the disciplines (math, science, social science, English). Also, don’t forget to send your mid-semester grades. Those are usually helpful (especially if they continue to be strong)</p>

<p>I am really scared of being rejected from w&m, since i am only a freshman here at University of Central Florida. However, I started college during summer semester with
World Religions and U.S History. Now I am taking Pre-Calculus, Bio I with lab, Intro to Communications, and Social Psychology, my current grade in all of them is an A. Also, my high school transcript shows a strong curriculum with a 4.6 gpa and lots of AP classes. However, my SAT grades were “average”. I also did this special graduation plan at my high school where I was able to graduate in 3 years with nothing but academics, while being active in clubs. I am still wondering if i might have a good chance or not at w&m…</p>
