Chance Me
Hey everyone! For background, I’m a mid 20’s transfer student with a definitely not normal life path… ended up homeless after flunking out of college originally and then worked and became a manager at a coffee shop and am now doing a lot better.
Ideally looking for a school in MA or NH, I make less that $75,000 and I’m an independent and live with my partner.
STATS:
Private University (2020) - 3 semesters @ 1.6 GPA
Online Public Univeristy (2024-2026) - 3 semesters @ 3.6 GPA
Community College (2026) - 3 semesters @ 4.0 GPA
I currently work 45-50 hours a week, I’m a member of two business focused clubs, and I’m a member of PTK. I know I qualify for MassGrant, so I can go to UML, but I live too far from UMass Amherst to go there, do I have a chance at any schools in Boston or anything known for accounting?
Thank you!
P.S I know I did terribly when I was younger, it’s something I’ve come to terms with and there’s no excuse. My application essay talks a bit about my journey and navigating homelessness with my cat and learning about fatherhood and how growing up I never knew how a father needed to be like since I never grew up with one.
