What can I do to enhance my chances of getting into Binghamton?

<p>I'm in my second year at my local community college (In NY)
My first year i'll admit I did so poorly in school mostly for my lack of attendance. I have taken summer classes in order to boost my GPA up and have received nearly all A's. Last semester my GPA was around a 3.2 and hopefully my summer classes will be able to boost it a little higher. Next semester I plan on doing a lot better, but I was just curious if anyone thinks me failing a few classes (I did not drop them properly) my first and second semester will impact my chances of getting in even if I show a great improvement?
I support myself fully with tuition and books and a maintain two part time jobs on top of it. </p>

<p>If anyone could give me advice on what to do for the next semester or so to enhance my chances it would be greatly appreciated!</p>

<p>Thank You! :)</p>

<p>I transferred into Bing last year. Your GPA looks competitive (assuming you’re transferring into Harpur; it’s harder to transfer into the prof schools) but an F on your transcript won’t look good. Just try to pull up your GPA and perhaps explain to admissions that you had difficulty dropping those courses and didn’t really “fail” them.</p>
