<p>@ashleydawn unfortunately no I didn’t want to take unnecessary classes so I just stuck to what I needed for my major </p>
<p>Does anyone know to what extent extracurricular activities affect your acceptance? Obviously they benefit you if you have a strong list, but if you don’t, is that going to hurt you a lot?</p>
<p>I’m not sure. When I talked to the admissions councilor they said volunteer work looks good. However, I’m not sure if it will hurt you. </p>
<p>@ashleydawn Okay. Thanks!</p>
<p>we don’t need sat’s as transfers right? because I don’t have my scores anymore! I don’t think we need them</p>
<p>I have no idea. I think if you graduated within the last five years you need to send them.
Is anyone applying to the Honors College?</p>
<p>but the website doesn’t say anything about sending them idk only if they’re available?</p>
<p>Also for transfers do we send our transcripts to the same place like normal seniors would who are trying to get in for their freshmen year or is there a different address. Also what is the address we send them too please let me know ASAP!</p>

<p>@transfervt4evr I don’t know much about the college of engineering but from last year’s transfer posts it looks like your stats are about the same for those who were accepted. </p>
<p>For those community college students applying for priority review is your hs transcript also needed? I sent mine hs transcript in about a month ago and tech still hasn’t received it. Does anyone else have this problem? </p>
I am also applying as a transfer! I’ve committed to completing my entire application by January 15ᵗʰ so that my chances of scholarship recruitment etc. are as high as possible.
I think they give preference to people who are transferring with an associate’s degree. I Emailed a lady at the admissions office and she told me that “In most cases” people who have an associates degree and a GPA of 3.0 or higher get in.
Having the same problem! They received my VCCS transcript on the 31st, but still haven’t received my final HS transcript… I called the high school and they said it was mailed on the 9th. Just hope they get it in time
I’m pretty sure it’s needed. My HS counselor sent mine in early November and they didn’t receive it until December 12th, so they may just post things late. Everything will hopefully be probably be put in by the 9th.
Also, last year Tech sent admissions decisions early… does anyone know about this year?
@ashleydawn
Priority review for VCCS transfer students get to find out the first week of February, IF submitted by the 9th. JUST ONE MORE MONTH
That’s only about three weeks away! I’m so nervous :((
Hey guys do you know how long it takes for VT to receive transcripts because I sent my transcript a couple weeks ago and haven’t received any conformation.
I sent in my college transcript on the 22nd and they received it the 30th. But I sent in my hs transcript in at the beginning of December and they still don’t have it. But it looks like we aren’t the only ones going through this problem if that helps any @vtguy777
