Hey there,
I am a current college freshmen looking to transfer for Fall 2016. I should have applied to Oxy initially per the request of my college counselor, but alas, I decided to go to a larger state school while my twin headed to Pasadena and now I’m looking to join her. I got excellent grades at a highly competitive high school (one which I know Oxy is familiar with; they tend to admit a large number of girls from my tiny school each year) but I only took the SAT once and winged it, meaning I’m gonna have to take it again sometime this year. Oxy transfer’s 2015, how much do you feel your SAT played into your admission decision? Furthermore, I am beginning to worry that my college grades are NOT going be as strong as my high school transcript. A number of schools I’ve talked to did say that they place more emphasis on high school transcripts than grades earned in college, do any of y’all know how true this is of Oxy?? Any info is excellent info at this point!
