Great Stats @TransferNA
How many graded credit hours do you have at the moment? You may have a good chance if you have completed some of those required courses.
I think you have a great chance, but I heard CoB was a shot in the dark. How confident are you with your essay?
I am confident in my essay. I would probably rate it an 8-9/10
I have 16 hours at college. I completed 3 of the required courses already and will have all them done by the end of spring. I also got A’s in micro and macro in high school but only got a 3 on the exam 
I don’t think your AP scores will negatively affect your admission chances, but I heard rumors that Sophomore transfers are accepted mostly on a space available basis (like many other transfer programs). This is especially true for business applicants since they give the most priority to their own students because they can’t apply to transfer into the CoB again after they finish their first year.
That’s not what I wanted to hear hahah. Not gonna assume anything. Hoping both of us get in!
I’m sorry… but I still think you have a good shot! All things considered, of course.
Accepted to Gies College of Business! I wasn’t expecting such a quick response! Application completed 1/27 / Accepted 2/11
Congrats! How did you find out your decision? Did they send you an email or was the decision available in your portal?
Thanks @cheesecake1165! I actually haven’t gotten an email yet but the portal updated this morning.
Congrats! That was a really quick response. I’ve been looking at other threads and since you have a really high GPA and lots of high quality EC’s they tend to accept them quicker.
