<p>Here's my stats, Applied to Tennessee, Clemson, Maryland, Eckerd College, UNC Wilmington.</p>
<p>I wrote a good essay for each school, and got great recommendation letters.</p>
<p>High School:
3.4 GPA
1200 SAT (M+CR)
Work and sports. Good sports record, all region cross country, swim team captain, cycling and triathlon state and regional championships, etc.</p>
<p>College 1 (Private):
1.2 GPA
23 Earned Hours
No extracurriculars</p>
<p>College 2 (Public):
4.0 GPA
9 Earned Hours
President's List</p>
<p>Total:
1.92 GPA
32 Hours Earned</p>
<p>Over the past year I started a great job and have since been promoted three times in six months. I have kind of established myself as a bit of a professional. I will still be full-time next year no matter where I am. However, I have a great opportunity with my job in front of me. Btw, what I do now is very similar to what I plan on doing for my career. I don't want to pass this opportunity up thinking that I am going to be somewhere else in the fall, and then not get in anywhere.</p>
<p>I have already gotten declined from UNC Wilmington. Is it somewhat unrealistic that with my current stats, I will get accepted to any of those schools? The last thing I want is to either pass on this opportunity and end up being here next year, or to take the opportunity and then get a couple of acceptance letters.</p>
<p>Right now, I work a lot, and like it, my grades are good at this school, the work is pretty easy, and the professors are really good. However, it's a commuter school and there is NO social life. Going to one of those schools would mean probably not working, which I think I would miss, however, a more traditional college experience and probably a much better social life.</p>
<p>This decision has been tearing at me for about two weeks now, and I have to make a decision on this work opportunity by tomorrow afternoon. Any input at all is greatly appreciated.</p>
