<p>I was wondering whether or not I should transfer to the University of Miami. I am a junior college student. My grade point average in high school was terrible (2.7) and I have completed the 30 college credits UM requires so that they waive my high school record and my SAT scores. I have a 3.3 college GPA and I have spent the past two semesters on the Dean's List. I'm also a minority(black) if that even makes a difference,as well as a Florida resident. If I think I have a good chance at getting in (60% or higher) i'll apply but if not then I'll save the money I would spend on an application. I grew up loving the University of Miami and its my number 1 choice and I wish to enter as a criminology major but I need some feedback as to whether or not I have a decent to good shot at being accepted.</p>
<p>You definately have a chance to get in - their average transfer GPA = your GPA. Get good recs and hope for the best!</p>
