Hey y’all

So I want to transfer from the University of Kansas to Umass amherst in Fall 2019.
I have a 3.65 GPA, and made deans honor roll this fall.
my high school gpa was unweighted 3.0 and weighted 3.5
it says if you have a 504 plan you don’t need to send your ACT scores, so imma do that.
I have many community service and extra activities, especially w special education students which is what I want to study in the long run. so im gonna send my personal essay on that. which came out awesome
I took 12 credits in fall 2018 and will be taking 15 in spring 2019
any advice?

“any advice?”

Three things:

  • Look closely at the economic / cost implications of the transfer.
  • For any essays that you write as part of your application, try to write carefully and use grammatically correct English. Check your spelling before hitting "send".
  • Consider the option of getting your bachelor's where you are, and getting a master's at U.Mass.

I suppose that I could also suggest cheering for the Patriots next Sunday, but that might be a bit too much to ask for.
