<p>I had a pretty decent high school career (3.3 GPA, 2000 SAT). I was wondering if it would be possible to successfully transfer to a decent four-year institution from a community college after one year?</p>
<p>Hard to know what you mean by ‘decent’. Have you talked to your CC advisor? They would have the most experience and knowledge for your CC.</p>
<p>Decent SAT score, but not-so-decent GPA. Hope you get a decent college GPA so you can transfer to a decent university. Lol, just kidding.</p>
<p>If you are planning to transfer as a sophomore, your high school record is far more important than your college grades, so I hope you have some good extracurricular activities. Also, what schools are you looking at?</p>
<p>SAT: 2000
SAT II: US History (700) World History (700)
GPA: 3.3
AP’s: US History (4) Wolrd History (3) Human Geography (4) English Language (3)</p>

-Varsity Cross Country: 10th, 11th- Captain
-Varsity Indoor Track: 10th, 11th

<p>That’s more general information about my high school career. I am hoping to apply to Georgetown (total crapshot), George Washington, American, George Mason, and Virginia Commonwealth University. Would my high school record along with a year of good grades at a community college make me a competitive applicant?</p>
<p>You have some good extracurricular activities. Continue them in college. And also, you should visit the schools to help you write a compelling essay explaining why you want to transfer.</p>
<p>I think with a good college GPA you can get into American and George Mason and you are likely to get into GWU. As for Georgetown, you can check out the website for transfer student stats. Most of the accepted transfer students were in the top 10% of their high school class.</p>
