My chances for VMI/The Citadel as a transfer?

[Kevin23]

I'm a college freshman who is planning on transferring from my current institution to VMI or The Citadel for next year.

I'm just curious if someone could give me an estimate of my chances at these two good schools? My grades and test scores in high school weren't good but I still would like to hear.

Thank you,

ACT-19


College Record
GPA-3.1/3.2(first semester)

Extracurricular's from 11th grade onward

24 hours of community service

Alpha Phi Omega(National Co-ed Community Service Society)

Phi Alpha Theta(Historical Honor's Society)

I also held a job for a year as a bagger at a local grocery chain

Kevin-
While your HS grades are not the strongest ones out there but your college GPA looks competitive as a transfer -( I believe that the profile of the Rat mass of 2013 shows the avg transfer GPA was 3.03.) Assuming that you are going to maintain that GPA thru the end of the semester- I would think that your application would at least get a serious look.
This is one of those times when truthfully - you will only get the straight answer from the Admissions office. As the old saying goes- "nothing ventured - nothing gained".

I've attached a link to the profile of the class of 2013 just FYI:

Good luck
