I am currently attending community college in Virginia and will graduate with an associates in Business Administration this spring. I have a 4.0 and expect to finish with that as well. I have been extremely involved and have made a point of taking the most challenging classes at my community college (mainly calculus and physics). I will finish with 74 credit hours.
Anyway, from when I first started at community college, I had the goal of transferring into University of Virginia’s McIntire school of Commerce. I have done extensive research and visited the school numerous times. I have even gotten to know some people in the office as well as alumni (one of which is writing me a recommendation letter). So basically I am set on going to the school but am not sure if I should pursue other options as well.
Should I apply to other schools or should I just plan for my transition into UVA? I am confident that UVA is the right fit and know that will reflect accurately in my app essays. Please any advice at all will be helpful.
