Hi like the title say i'm hoping to transfer into MHC by Spring 2013 and i'm getting into the application process already and I've written up a draft for my essay already and I would like if someone would take the time to read over and help revise my essay. I would prefer someone who is already in the college but its not limited to just students of the college

hopefully I get a reply soon thanks


and if anyone is planning on transferring it would be nice to get to know each other during this time

I can try reading it? I was admitted for Fall 2012 transfer if that helps (and I am currently going to attend).

oh awesome! sorry for replying back so late but i'll e-mail it to you later on today

can you tell me about the whole process did you get an interview, did they provide you with a good financial aid award anything really would help

thanks again

Sorry for the late reply. To explain my process I first have to explain that I did apply for Mount Holyoke my senior year of college and was waitlisted. Many colleges keep older files in case they are needed again (so I am going to assume this is what happened in my case). I did interview senior year and thought it went well. But my hs gpa wasn't exactly too high so I think that had a factor in my waitlist. At college, I went to one of the colleges of the five college consortium and received a 3.9 gpa my first semester. I also had good recommendations from my professors so I'm sure that might have helped? I am not sure. The strangest thing about my application is that I didn't finish my supplement but I was still accepted so I guess they liked the other parts of my application enough.

As for financial aid, I did get a decent financial aid package (although I wish it was a bit more).
