Hi everyone. I'm a current sophomore at GWU and looking to transfer for my junior year. Looking for some feedback on whether I have a shot at any of the schools I’m applying to. I am applying to Amherst, Brown, Duke (top choice), Harvard, Emory, Vanderbilt, and Yale. My reasons for transferring are entirely academic; I’m looking for a school with really strong Africana/Black Studies and Dance Departments. I detailed how I am looking for a way to bridge my Africana studies with my dance background in my common app essay. More specifically, I am interested in the ways that traumatic experiences infiltrate artistic cultural decisions.
Stats:
College GPA: 3.82, and 4.0 last semester
HS Stats: Top 10 boarding school, 3.5 GPA, 30 ACT
EC’s: I dance with a professional dance company in DC; Doris Duke Conservation Scholar; work with sexual assault survivors Rape, Abuse, Incest National Network (RAINN); Telluride Association Summer Program; and a host of other dance and ethnic based extracurricular activities…
Any input would be much appreciated!
