<p>Hey everyone…I am just trying to figure out my chances of being accepted to UVA for next year–fall, 2011 (application deadline March 1, 2011). </p>
<p>I am a California resident and currently a sophomore attending Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, so I would be transferring as a junior. I am a communications major and english minor (switched from business after 1st semester freshman year), and have a 3.8 cumulative GPA. I ran (division 1) cross country and track and field my freshman year, yet had to stop running due to a re-ocurring/major hip injury & surgery. I am currently a “student athlete mentor,” which involves teaching a class (involving study skills, ethics, etc), for the freshman athletes, as well as helping and coordinating various charity events. I consider myself a good writer, so I plan on being able to write a pretty strong essay for the application. Thanks for the help, time, and input!</p>
