<p>Figment42 hit the nail on its head. To be honest, you should retake the ACT. I had a 32 single sitting when I applied ED to NYU, but I know that for a school like Columbia, you want to make sure your application is as close to perfection as you can get it. Your high school GPA seems really good, but your college GPA is gonna matter as well. If you have a 3.8+ I would imagine you would be a very competitive application especially considering your EC’s. Hey could you return the favor btw? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/columbia-university/1252282-transferring-downtown-nyu-uptown-columbia.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/columbia-university/1252282-transferring-downtown-nyu-uptown-columbia.html</a></p>
