<p>Can you guys tell me if I can get into Columbia College from a community college?</p>
<p>My HS performance was terrible GPA wise, to be honest. I took 3 APs I think (scores weren’t good at all) and a bunch of honors. Did 50 hrs of volunteer work. 2 years of soccer. 2/3 years of theatre (nothing major there). </p>
<p>college
GPA: 3.95
Major: Philosophy
SATs: 2150 (might retake, doubtful of any change though)</p>
<p>ecs
- Internship 1: (nonprofit) editor in chief and developer of official newspaper, I am in charge of volunteers, I also go to schools sometimes and give presentations, etc (from April - present)
- Internship 2: (nonprofit) more stuff, I dunno how to list these (from August - present)
Both will last well over the application deadline - Phi Theta Kappa member and officer, in charge of a bunch of things
- Student Government Senator
- might tutor about 5 hrs a week starting September
- Philosophy Club (leader)
- involved with Financial Aid Office, etc (I forget my official title lol)
- started online and print literary magazine
- in the works of starting nonprofit
- Honors Association adviser
- published in literary magazine and likely to happen again</p>
<p>I don’t think my ECs are that good really. I’m looking to do something really special but I’m drawing blanks.</p>
<p>My HS performance is likely to hurt me tremendously and my unimpressive ECs. I might also do a few hours of volunteer work, not amounting to much of anything honestly. </p>
<p>I think my essays will be really good. If anything, I can write relatively well. I think I’ll get some good letters of recommendation.</p>
<p>Can someone tell me if Columbia is a silly dream? </p>
<p>I posted before a similar thread but for Columbia GS. I realized I didn’t qualify recently. </p>
<p>I appreciate all input.</p>
