While we're talking about transferring, how likely is it to transfer to a top school from an average state school?
Realize that just by being in college, you're better off than most people in this world. There are so many people that want to be in our position, and yet, here we are squandering it away? It doesn't sit well with me. Going to a CC is the best decision I've made in my young life. I never really knew what I wanted to do with my life. It was free and I got paid to learn and explore.Originally Posted by odog24
op how do u get urself from bein a lazy bum to actually start doin work???? i have dis problem
Look up the transfer rates for state schools to whatever school you want to go to in your state. In California, admission priority to UCs is given to community college students and other UCs. It's harder to transfer from a state school to a UC, but not impossible. I don't recommend going to a state school to transfer to a better school. It just costs more for the exact same classes.Originally Posted by scshift

If I didn't get into those schools listed, how would I have gotten into Stanford? I purposely chose two of the best universities and I thought it was pretty obvious I was joking. Oh well, I'm not smart enough to get into any of them so no harm no foul.
My parents aren't going to pay for anything, I gotta fund everything and I've been told that loans aren't a good idea so I don't know what I'm going to do. I don't even know why I applied to private schools cause they're so expensive. I didn't get money from any of them.

When you're moving from college to college, is GPA still the dominant factor? Or do they want to see more progress/experience in the field you choose to enter? Say you're studying mechanical engineering, do schools/future employers want to see a high GPA, or activity in the mech. engineering side?

Went to a CSU (Cal Poly Pomona) for three years, decided I needed to bounce out of that hellhole, so I got a job.
Planning on going to CC for a year and then applying to Cal (the only school I can really imagine myself at). I'm gonna have to do the full-time work, part-time school thing.
Engineering majors can get away with lower GPA's depending on the school and it's reputation. Offer some advice, if you want to be an Engineering major, which is weird since you applied to stern, CC is not the route to go. It would be in your best interest to take a gap year where you volunteer and build your overall application, address how you feel in the admission's emotion about your unexpected gap year and how it made you a more well rounded person(first true disappointment in life). If your interested in another field, I would advice you to take a look into community colleges. If your really set on being ivy league bond, N.C.C sends a few students up to Cornell every year. NCC is in new york so you would have to decide if struggling those two years is worth the glam of the ivy league.Originally Posted by NikeAirForce1

I'd say GPA is the dominant factor when you're transferring, but they also look at your extracurricular activites (jobs/volunteering), though I didn't have much at all. From what I've read, job experience is what employers want. Engineering majors can get away with lower GPAs, but not by too much.
I saw a post on here where someone said they just went to a technical school for engineering and is making bank right now. So look into that as well.
this. big deal, celebrate for a night then move on. i'm not telling you this to discourage you, i'm telling you this to motivate you to keep moving forward.Originally Posted by MPLSdunk
bruh, you got accepted. you didn't just graduate. not trying to discourage you but it hasn't even begun. i hope you do well though and follow through.
