@ksleeper @Meeeedicine I’d most certainly be down to clown with you and all the other transfer admits, pending admissions!
Even though I have a high GPA, I am still worried. My CC transcript isn’t very heavy on science courses. Also, they waived the SAT/ACT requirements for me because I received my GED at 17 which was eons ago lol
They told me that as long as you have been out of high school for 7 or more years, they will waive those requirements.
@ksleeper As long as most of your courses are related to your major, you’ll be fine with a lack of science courses.
Well I don’t know where you all are from but I am a local here so I know all kinds of good places we could go.
I go to Volunteer State Community College. I wanted a neuroscience program but all my school offers is a psychology major. I have 3 psych classes on my transcript.
I’ve refrained from posting since I spent way too much time on CC during first year admissions, but I’ll join in on the anxiety.
I have a ton of work due next week and that is not going to be fun if I don’t hear back today.
I go to a large Catholic university in a huge city that has the most anti-catholic campus in the country. Care to guess which one?
@Mastodon97 DePaul
@sgallagher23 Holy crap, first try wow!
@Mastodon97 I’m from the Chicago suburbs so I know DePaul pretty well.
Do colleges also care about the reputation of your current school? I’m worried cuz im from a pretty crappy
place…
@inordie yes, but top 40 is not bad; it is just not good.
@inordie That’s a very complicated question (more than ILR2020’s answer, respectively). It all boils down to our most hated answer…it depends on your situation.
@Mastodon97 I also go to DePaul!
Hmm… Like what kind of situation? Also, is Vanderbilt engineering harder to get in than cas or any other colleges in vandy
looks like no decisions
@anonymoussss123 could be released at end of business day
@inordie The way I’d interpret it is quite simple. I’m a community college student and I can tell you right now that there are many reasons students are here. It’s easy to say that most are here because they had a poor high school performance and/or don’t care about college. The reality is that a lot of people are here because they need to stay close to home because of their jobs. At a young age they have to support their households, work full time(not on campus, mind you) and put food on the table.
For some people it’s just not realistic to uproot their lives to go off to another state (or even city) for college, so they go for the -closer- and more economic option.
Initially, I was an example of one of these students. I was accepted at my state college(UF, FSU, etc) but I chose to stay home and attend a local CC because I was the one earning the most. Since then our situation has improved, so I don’t have to worry about leaving my household in financial jeopardy by leaving.
yeah maybe what time would it be potentially @mjr2013
