I’m a student coming from Puerto Rico(Hispanic), my GPA is around 3.3 and ACT score 28. School ranks are not offered in PR. I have a bunch of EC I was very active in the JROTC and am an athlete (martial arts) with a few medals at the International level and honestly I know I’m far from being the best candidate, maybe even an average. But, since I know I won’t get into any of the really competitive majors I want to try to get in through DGS and then transfer even though I know it’s a hard path. Nonetheless I’m also accepting suggestions for colleges in the US (I want to major in Aerospace engineering) into with these qualifications. Or ones who have good engineering programs where I can get in through something else and then transfer.
