Transfer Students
1

<p>Hey guys, I am worried about my chances of being accepted into Marshall as a transfer. I have 7 w's (due to a crisis in the beginning of my cc career), but have since then picked it up and gotten straight A's. Currently I have a 3.8 GPA with phenomenal EC's. I am worried about my schedule though as it has not been extremely tough other than taking 3 quantitative classes in the summer and getting all A's. If you guys could chance me I would greatly appreciate it. </p>

<p>I’d say good chance, but what do I know, I got rejected from transfer last year… A friend of mine got in with 3.6… another SGR with 3.4</p>

4

<p>^ was this for Marshall?</p>

5

<p>yes, all marshalls.
but good experience on top of the gpas, if you have experience it’d definitely help.
haven’t heard of too many students with 3.4 getting an sgr</p>

<p>Thats great to hear!</p>

7

<p>it would be great to hear some more replies!</p>

8

<p>bump guys… I would really appreciate some input!! I REALLY want to get into USC guys.</p>

<p>Nobody else can help me?</p>

<p>I answered in a PM but to be honest you’re probably not going to receive any more input than what is already above.</p>

<p>In the end no one here is going to be making the decisions so whether they tell you have no shot or an excellent shot is it really worth the opinion? Furthermore, admissions are unpredictable that you can never be sure.</p>

<p>If you want some advice, I would focus on writing a well thought out response to the Why USC prompt and explaining your Ws.</p>

<p>Yeah the prompts are already written out, I’m just uneasy knowing that USC does not take EC’s into consideration now.</p>
