I just finished my transfer application (Mechanical Engineering), applying from Massbay Community College.

HS:
GPA ~1.9 (I slacked and didn’t care)
Wrestling, Swimming, Boy Scouts (Eagle Scout).
SAT: 1850

After high school I spent 4 years in the Marine Corps with a deployment to Afghanistan.

College:
Started at Worcester State University
GPA ~2.9

Massbay CC
GPA ~3.4 (but my current semester is 19 credits and I’m killing it with a 3.89 so far)
I have been working since I got out of the Marine Corps.

Essay: I wrote about my time in Afghanistan and wanting to work on energy sustainability products to help bring infrastructure to 3rd world regions.

I am also going to work on a research project with them this summer. I really hope I get in.
