I am intending on getting 60 credit hours by the end of next fall term. I am a freshman in community college currently taking 19 credit hours and have 3 ap scores in marco and two in english that are 4s. I am intending on majoring in Economics or International Affairs with a minor in either arabic or french (I have a degree in German already) and speak fluent danish/swedish/norweigen. i am aiming for a 4.0 gpa obviously, and will not let myself get lower than a 3.7

ECs : -was with a program called ‘world teach’ funded by harvard for 3 months in Africa over the summer, was a basic science and ict teacher.
- have taken private violin lessons since i was 7
- i am tutoring kids in music (violin and piano)
- i play at a hospice every week (volunteer work)
- I am working as a waitress at outback steak house
there is a lot more.

personal essay ;

be regarding my cultural shock and how it has affected my life, but made me stronger or something (depression through highschool) moved to america from denmark on 9/11 , still danish citizen. I am half Iranian also, and have been there 4 times. (leave the country twice a year) and blahblah blah.

I REALLY want to get out of the state, and i know i will have the grades, i would be trying to get into U of C . but they dont take community college credit transfers < 3 so thats out of the question.

PLEASE GIVE ME ANY INFORMATION YOU CAN ON WHAT WOULD HELP MY CHANCES, what they look for, (BEING AN OUT OF STATE TRANSFER) and so forth

MUCH APPRECIATED .
