<p>I’m currently a senior in H.S. My GPA is going to be around a 2.8 when I graduate (Yes, I now realize I should have done better), and my SATs arent too great either. Also, as of right now I have no ECs or volunteer hours. I signed up at my local CC and I want to get out of there as fast as possible. As of right now my goal is to transfer after my first year or earlier to a good LAC.</p>
<p>I have not made any choices yet but I was looking at a few such as Franklin & Marshall and Hobart William & Smith Colleges. What goals in college should I meet to get into these schools or of equal caliber? Obviously a high GPA, but is there anything else I would need? Alot of ECs and volunteer hours right? What would be the standard “requirement” for total volunteer hours and ECs?</p>
