<p>Hello forum,</p>
<p>It was my understanding that SUS applicants from Florida public community colleges with AA degrees are not required to submit a HS transcript for the transfer application. Why then, is UF requesting a HS transcript be sent for their transfer application? </p>
<p>I am applying to the College of Engineering in Fall 2010 with 43 AB/IB credits and 16 institutional credits completed by the time of the application. However, I will have upwards of that and an A.A. degree by the time of my theoretical admittance. </p>
<p>Although I took a challenging course-load in HS and received an IB Diploma, my grades were quite poor. Frankly, that's the reason why I'm at a community college. I'd much rather not have UF take my HS transcript into their decision.</p>
<p>However, I've taken my second chance and done very well. Even though I only have 16 credits so far, I have a 4.0 overall GPA. My pre-professional GPA for the College of Engineering is also 4.0 (based on Calculus III and Physics I w/ Calculus; Calc I and II = 5 on AP). I plan to complete Chemistry I and Differential Equations in Spring, and Chemistry II and Physics II in Summer.</p>
<p>My concerns are that I don't have enough credit hours at my institution for my 4.0 GPA to mean anything. And of course, my second concern is that they'll take my HS transcript into transfer judgement.</p>
<p>If anyone could advise me and perhaps offer guidance, I'd much appreciate that. Thank you.</p>
<p>PS: SAT is 2200, if that matters.</p>
