Wow. After sitting on the sidelines of CollegeConfidential transfer threads for top schools for ages, I never thought I’d be one of the few posting their stats.

Decision: Accepted
Major: Materials Science
School: Norwalk Community College
GPA: 3.98
SAT: 2280 (2011); Math II: 780
ECs: Engineering club president, Physics TA, 15h/wk as tutor (present), 30h/wk as line cook (previously), caretaker of local tree farm
Recs: I assume they were pretty good, they were from professors I’m close with and the academic dean

Looking back, I do have the stats for it, I guess I just kept seeing my flaws (community college, could have put more work into essays).

Congrats to everyone else who was accepted! And this community is awesome, thank you for helping me through this anxious period!
