<p>Hey, I'm an American citizen and I did freshman year at an American high school and a few months of sophomore year. I took all the required courses but due to my dad's job, we had to move to Australia. The American school closed down so I've been going to an Australian school meaning that I've been studying through the Australian schooling curriculum which is REALLY different from the American one. Now, it turns out that I'll be moving back for my senior year which is stressing me out even more! </p>
<p>The main thing I'm stressing out about is how my classes will be transferred over credit and GPA wise .... so if you know how this works, please let me know. No AP or running start classes are available here, I may be able to take a few online courses but I still am ... really stressing out. Have I said that already? STRESSED OUT. Also when I move back I'll have missed a month or two of senior year. </p>
<p>So anyways, because of all this mess, will my chances of getting into UW be lowered? Someone said universities liked culture students ... no idea if there's any truth in that but I've lived in many parts of the US, Europe, and now obviously Australia. I've been to 7 schools (yeah i know, yikes). Plus the fact that they won't have a record of my gpa from sophomore to junior year i'm really really really scared! Please someone help me! </p>
<p>Of course I know there are other schools, but I really love UW. OKAY COOL BYE :D
(Bonus info: when I left my gpa was 3.8, I'm class of 2013 and I took all honors classes and think I'm a good student. Any other information you need, I shall provide!)</p>
