I really like CMC, but I am worried that it is too "pre-professional". While I like that the school is "practical", I am hesitant to attend a school where students are simply there to prepare for grad school rather than actually learn for the sake of learning. Does this seem to be a problem at CMC? And do students, who aren't entirely sure of what career they want to have, frowned upon by the driven, practical students?
hi i dont knw why no1else has posted this question yet...i am a waitlisted student in CMC and i was juss wondering how i can improve my chances of getting in...bcause i really wanna go to this school...it's my top choice can any1 suggest any ideas please...thanx in advance...!!
HI.. so when i went to the inside cmc day. Some of the students i talked to mentioned how CMC pays for your gas money or tickets when you want to go somewhere on the weekends. Can you elaborate on that? Also, I do live really close by, but my mom doesn't want me to drive. How can I get around cuz I know public transportation sucks. Does CMC help provide transportation?
is it hard to transfer in? i'm ending my first year at a four-year university and looking to take the next semester off, most likely apply to transfer for spring 2009.
i would recommend just staying in school at your school for the fall, and then transferring into the spring 2009 so you can enter sophomore second semester, and not be behind.
I think the admit rate for transfer is anywhere from 10-17 percent. You may want to check collegeboard.com for the exact numbers.
btw what happens if you dont get into claremont, you have to have backups.
