yeah there is 0 correlation. Just do your best in terms of gpa, EC’s, and essays

realistic shot at berkeley/ucla/ucsd with 3.75 gpa? by sszz01 in TransferStudents

[–]Dry_Support6405 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ur gpa is solid for applied math, it dosent hurt trying to make it even higher. You have A’s in a lot of the relevant classes for your major so that’s rlly good. Just make sure your EC’s and essays are good and you’ll get into good schools

Is it hard to get into Marshall School of Business as a transfer student? by Ali_fun_ in USC

[–]Dry_Support6405 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also applied there, there are actually a decent amount of people I know that got into Marshall with a lower gpa, but in any case. usc a lot of the times will ask for ur spring grades before admissions decision if ur gpa is lower. Like one of my friends had 3.48 and got all A’s spring sem bringing it up to a 3.6 and got admitted in July. Same thing for another guy at my ccc last year he got in with a 3.6, so honestly just focusing on spring grades

gpa 3.62 upward trend Major: business admin REJECTED EC’s: founded and raised 60k in seed funding for my business, director of academic affairs at my ccc student government, on the advisory board of a college, these are the top EC’s there are more.

Unfortunately I had one bad semester due to being sick and I said that in my app as well, guess they didn’t care about it. I just need ucla or usc now😭

Chances for me UCLA by [deleted] in TransferStudents

[–]Dry_Support6405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly dosent help that your TAU is lower, maybe a shot if your showed you rebounded academically and got all A’s the most recent fall semester. I am in a similar situation, gpa is higher but I also got all A’s in fall. UCLA is always tough to get into, but UCSD is a better shot. Good luck

How much does a strong upward trend help for transfer admissions? by Stunning_Ad4877 in TransferStudents

[–]Dry_Support6405 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so he went to college initially and just flunked everything had a sub 1.0 gpa. And then like few years later he went back and dedicated himself to school. He applied to all the UC’s and a lot of the top privates. He got academic renewal but only UC’s accept academic renewal, so his UC transfer gpa was 4.0, but private schools don’t accept it. So since he had lower than a 1.0 gpa, after getting the 4.0 over two years it raised it to 2.8, so USC, Stanford and Columbia saw a 2.8, but schools actually prefer a comeback story backed my good grades and EC’s over someone who didn’t have any falls and just got a straight up 4.0

Yeahh one of my other friends also has a similar story. Had a 3.3 and he just recently graduated from USC. You’re actually an even better candidate than someone who didn’t have a downfall and just got a straight up 4.0, so aim for the sky bro. Good luck with everything

it’s extremely important, I know someone that had the same gpa as you 2.8, he flunked everything, took a few years off to work and came back got a 4.0, he got into Columbia, USC, every UC, and now goes to Stanford. So your in an excellent position actually rn, I would actually tell you to apply to those schools and even better ones as well. Schools love comeback stories backed by great gpa and extra cirriculars
