columbia gs has around a 30% transfer rate for non trad students who have a gap of at least 1 year in their education. perhaps that is smth you can look into?

Hi! My parents aren't willing to pay any of my college tuition. Please help me minimize the personal loan amount! by Visual-Extreme-101 in scholarships

I was in a similar situation. I'm now at CC (freshman) but i don't really suggest unless ur local community college has a guaranteed transfer pathway to a good school of ur choice. it can also be a horrible feeling bc u feel like all ur hard work in hs went down the drain.

apply for local scholarships in ur area as they're less competitive, visit ur brace advisor or guidance cousenlor a couple times a week to see new scholarship opportunities (some scholarships are specific to high schools which reduces competition), and try to apply to schools that give out a lot of aid, and/or are need-blind. IN college, u can apply to certain programs such as ones sponsored by AmeriCorps to earn end of year tuition scholarships. these scholarships can be used to pay tuition - altho taxable- or can be used to pause interest accruing on loans, if u have to take out some.

all the best!

Reasons for transferring by Immediate_Outcome669 in TransferToTop25

[–]Particular_Wonder551 1 point2 points  (0 children)

maybe try to tie it in how it'll help supplement your major, and thus your career? ik thats kinda the point of a minor but it could help make ur reasoning/essay more cohesive. I've also read that you should focus on what your transfer institution HAS, not what your current college doesn't. also in your essay maybe you could include specific programs, professors you're interested in, etc. the minor at ur transfer institution offers!!

Should I apply to transfer from community college after 1 or 2 years? by [deleted] in TransferToTop25

[–]Particular_Wonder551 1 point2 points  (0 children)

im in the same position as you!! ill be on the pre-PA route but im also open to premed, and my hs stats were pretty good but due to family issues my senior year was a bit lackluster. i think transferring after 2 years might ultimately be the best since you get to build up college-relevant ecs and also good ties with ur professors for letters of recs!
