<p>Could someone please give me a bit more information about applying as an incoming freshman? Some info about myself:</p>
<p>I got out of high school a year early via the CHSPE. I got a 4.0 all year in my sophomore year of high school and got around a C/B average for freshman and junior years (didn’t finish junior year though). At the moment though, I have earned A’s in all the classes I’ve taken so far at a community college. I have fewer than 26 semester units. According to [url=<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/transfer-students/390861-transfer-admissions-101-a.html]this[/url”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/transfer-students/390861-transfer-admissions-101-a.html]this[/url</a>] thread I can apply as a freshman. I would certainly like to try to enter as a freshman but I’m wondering how much my high school grades would matter.</p>
<p>David, if you are applying as a fr, then this should be posted on the College Admissions forum, not the Transfer Students forum. I will move.</p>
<p>You need to check each institution’s specific policy about this. Some universities consider you a transfer applicant if you have taken one credit after completing your secondary school education. Some universities consider you a freshman applicant if you have completed one credit less than a full year of college-level work.</p>
<p>If you are applying as a freshman, your secondary school record will indeed count. If you are applying as a transfer, again each institution sets its own policy about whether or not to require copies of your pre-college records. Some won’t ask for them if you have completed a full semester of college, others will ask for them even if you are applying after two full years of college.</p>
