<p>I just completed my freshman year at a state university on the east coast. My goal is to apply as a transfer student in California after taking a year off to save some money.
My cumulative GPA is 3.41. After my first semester I was invited to join the honors program at my university.
In high school my GPA was around 3.7. My test scores weren't great (550 critical reading, 540 math, 580 writing). I took the AP literature & comp exam, was a member of the National Honor Society and Spanish Honor Society. Class Standing: 19/194.
The colleges that I am looking into are (ordered by interest):
Pitzer College
Chapman University
Pepperdine University
University of Redlands
University of La Verne
Loyola Marymount University
Santa Clara University
St. Mary's College of California </p>
<p>Any suggestions/recommendations as to which ones I'd be most likely to get into would be greatly appreciated!</p>
