Transfer student, what are my chances?

Hi there,

Currently a junior at a community college called the College of San Mateo. Just wanted to know what your thoughts are of my chances on getting accepted into UW as a business admin major.

Overall GPA: 3.53
Units: 94

I started out community college with a 2.3 GPA because I took summer classes during high school and raised it to what I have now. If my GPA isn’t good enough would it come down to how well my personal statement is written? Please let me know if you guys need to know any other information regarding my records at community college.

Thanks!

Your GPA is a little above the average transfer GPA. As long as you write a good personal statement you’ll be fine. But make sure you put a lot of effort into your personal statement. It is a big deciding factor at UW.

Best of luck.

Get into Foster and you’ll get into UW as well. I don’t know what the new average stats are, but your GPA seems to be OK for the business school. Just make sure you prepare for the WSA as well.

Thanks for the responses @Loganmr97‌ and @seatac‌ . @seatac‌ , does the WSA have to be complete before the Feb 15 application deadline?

No, I don’t think you have to. They have sessions until April or so.
