how is it to get an advantage in the admissions process if you are pretty good at sports? i mean i’m not a division 1 athlete but if i do get to state (cali) in wrestling, how much would that affect my admissions process? do they give scholarships to wrestlers and even if they dont offer scholarships, would i get in much easier if i declare that i would like to wrestle for the school team?

I doubt I’ll get over a 4.00 average, I’ve been caught cheating twice, there’s no way I’m getting a sports scholarship, and my test grades are only a little bit above average (not insanely genius smart). Teachers and counsellors always told me that colleges never accept cheaters… do I still have a chance?

I am at a unknown college & my goal is to go to pharmacy or med school. I am a freshman in college. I don’t know if I should transfer to another college my junior year. I am going to a HBCU in virginia & I am white & it is very small, every one knows each other. I want to major in biomedical engineering w/a minor in spanish but my school doesn’t have that major or minor. Should I transfer to a school back home in Florida. The school I am at now is paid for w/a sports scholarship & the school back home is paid for w/Florida pre-paid. So cost is not an issue. I like the school I am at now b/c we have a good sports team & the teachers know you & can help you when ever you need help plus the classes are easy. I am afraid if I transfer that I will just be another number & the classes are going to be harder & my GPA is going to go down. Do you think I should transfer so I can take biomedical engineering at another school or do you think I should stay at my school & major in something else

I am a junior in high school and am thinking about colleges, I am a good student and hopefully will have an overall accumulative weighted average of about a 103 or 104 for all 4 years of high school, I always have this argument with my friends about how much clubs and sports help with acquiring scholarships, they say that they don’t but I believe they do a lot, I am in about 4 clubs and am an officer for one of them and also I have done a sport every season and will have a total of 12 sport seasons for all four years, how much will this help when applying to an average private college?

Elizabeth asked:


I have absolutely no money saved up for college. I’m going into the 9th grade. I want to be a cardiac surgeon. I’m not very athletic, so what can I do for scholarships? I live right outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I want to stay on the east coast and preferably still kind of towards the North. What are some good schools for what field I want to go into?
(I’ve always kind of like the idea of going to school in New York City and living there.)
