| CSU and CC, then UC? Transfer chances~ Please Help!
Can you guys please help me evaluate my chances as a transfer student. I graduated from a California HS in 06, then I went to SDSU for two semesters under the major Political Science. For the first two semesters, my GPA came out to be a 3.34. For many reasons, I decided to first take a semester stomp-out this past semester and move home for Fall 07. I am officially on a leave of absence now for this next semester; Spring 08. I have been going to Cuesta Community College and this past application period I applied to 5 CA schools as a transfer student. I am still technically an SDSU student and I can always return if I don’t get into any of the schools I applied to, however I really do not want to go back to SDSU. I Applied to:
UC Berkeley- Political Science ( my dream school, I just thought I would try)
UC Irvine- Political Science
UC Santa Barbara- Political Science with Emphasis on Public Service
UC Davis- Political Science with Emphasis on Public Service
Cal Poly- Political Science
My transfer GPA was 3.34 and my grade updates to the UC’s had three B’s and two A’s. My parents are Mexican immigrants and I am the first generation to go to college. I have also held many types of jobs throughout HS and college.
Transfer Essay: I explained how my participation at my community’s local outreach program had changed me to understand that we need to help people, and that I need a stellar education to help set the foundation for me to achieve that in the future.
What do you guys think? What are my chances? |
