<p>Hi guys. 
So, this September I’ll be starting at Bergen Community College. I already have 25 credits there, (from AP courses as well as their dual enrollment program that allowed me to get college credit for some of the classes I took in high school, resulting in a 3.3 gpa) and will be working towards an associates degree in Liberal Arts, as I’m not completely sure what I want to major in yet. I REALLY want to go to college in Boston, preferably Boston College. They waitlisted me the first time around, and then their class filled up, so I don’t really know what they thought about my application. I’m leaning towards a major in journalism. I just want to know what would be the best thing for me to do to increase my chances of getting in this time around. Not just to BC, but in general. Thanks :)</p>
