Hi all,

I hope I can transfer to Georgetown. I currently attend a community college that has over 60k students. At the end of this semester I will have a 3.74 GPA, I’m part of the honors college, President of the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society Chapter. Contributing writer for school newspaper. I’ve been selected to go to the International Salzburg Seminar representing my community college. I’ll take my SAT in January, however, I calculate a 2000 score, judging by what I’ve seen in the practice tests (I will practice more).

I’m also an international student. I’ve lived in more than 5 countries throughout my life and I speak 3 languages, so I think my profile is great for Georgetown.

Bad part, I plan to study business and I got a C in college algebra (my only C ever), but in the next class which was harder (trigonometry) I got an A.

I know I’ll get great recommendation letters from the Dean and teachers.

Please tell me what do you think!
