What do you think my chances are?
Hi all! First all I've spent hours reading through threads here and want to say thank you for the amazing information!
I'm a transfer student to Cal State San Bernardino. I'm a sophomore, although I am probably going to be changing my major and may end up staying more than 4 years, who knows. My rush week is next week and I'm nervous but very excited.
I don't have any letters of rec, I'll see if I can get some but I realize it's very short notice. Are they going to be super important at this school?
I have pretty good grades, got a 3.42 GPA last year. I also have a decent amount of community service.
I want to know how competitive recruitment will be at this school and how big of a disadvantage I'll be at due to my status as sophomore. What's the best way to overcome that disadvantage?
Thanks in advance!
Edit: Forget to mention my other major concern. I have a part time job (which I absolutely love, btw) and it just isn't realistic for me to get the whole week off for rush week (nor could I afford that - luckily my parents would be paying for all fees related to joining a sorority so that wouldn't be a problem). So, it's realistic to expect that I'll have to miss or at least be late to one or more parties. How should I handle this situation, and how will it affect me?
