Hey, i just submitted my application to HU a few days ago for fall of 08. I'm a transfer student with a 3.4 GPA 50 credit hours. I feel pretty confident that i will receive an acceptance letter BUT i noticed people were mentioning extracurricular activities or volunteering and well i have done none of those. I did start volunteering recently but honestly i don't even remember seeing a section on the transfer application asking for volunteer experience. is this something they ask only from freshmens or am i at risk for not being accepted because of my lack of volunteering and participating in school activities?

you and i are in the same boat it seems. i've got a 3.2 and I can't calculate the number of credit horus because the school i am at operates on a different scale but i know i have enough to get in. however, dependin on whether or not u submitted ur app online - i did - they had this thing that was optional for u to include an activities resume. thats wherere u put your volunteer info, work experience, clubs involved in, etc. i included that with my letter of rec. so, maybe you should try to send one. but honestly speakin i think u'll do fine. lemme know how it goes for u and who knows we might see each other next year! o yeah where u transferrin from?

im from the chi as well (southside!) **** but i go to a small private university out in the suburbs in Mcclean county. not too far away but its so boring! but if i dont get in imma be devastated! Howard is the only school i applied to transfer to and i've been tellin everybody of my plans to get out of this school and i will be so mad if come next year im still here..."o i thought u were leaving???" "...uh, yeah, about that..."

Gurl i feel ya i'm in the same situation! everyone is callin "HOward" my school already. I have a friend who goes to south Carolina state university and they played Howard a couple weeks back and i was all **** off cuz they lost. But if i don't get in man well i guess i'll be going to UIC in Chicago which is full of yuppies and Asians. not that I'm prejudice but i want the black experience! Gurl why r we doubting ourselves. lets claim it! God is good and rewards the worthy.
