College Appeal Essay

Post by zim »

My girlfriend was rejected from the college she applied to and now she's doing some appeal thingy. They sent her these questions to answer.


1. Do you feel your high school GPA and current ACT score accurately reflect your academic ability? Explain your answer.

2. Based on your high school records, how do you plan to be successful in college?

3. How many days of high school did you miss (if you are not sure estimate), and why?

4. Did you have a job and work during high school? If so, where did you work and how many hours a week did you work?

5. Why college now? Why Morehead State University?

6. What are your career goals?
Anyone ever had to do this? And if so; any tips for her? I've already googled a ton of sites and sent them to her. :santa:

Nope, might be good for her to try starting with community college and transferring later.

I guess that's her plan if this doesn't work.

As long as she keeps her GPA 3.0 or higher and her major isn't impacted at the school she tries to transfer to she should have a shot if she does go the community college route. Plus with community college if you want to change your major it's easy at community college, not so much at uni.
