<p>The school is admitting you, not your father, and your GPA is low. A 3.2 from Caltech is going to be different from a 3.2 at a community college, and if the latter is the case then you probably need a 3.7 to be competitive - transfer admissions are just as competitive as regular admissions, so even if you’re completely qualified across the board you still may not get in.</p>
