No point in planning. Everything ends up full or you can't get into the classes you want to or the professors you want to. Gotta hope for some add/drop magic.
Stupidest thing of all is that I want to get into a certain section but it won't let me because I need authorization...when the restriction is that you have to be a Sports Management major...WHICH I AM. Making me so angry.
But yea, my schedule sucks right now. Trying to fix it. |
Yeah really, hoping for some magic indeed. Speaking of, a few of my friends are doing Sports Management, where did you do your first internship? just out of curiosity?

Technically, I haven't done my Practicum yet but I've already done 2 internships, they just weren't for school credit. I did them with a NFL team though.
Typically, the best place to try and do it if you are having trouble would be to do it with the athletic department or a venue nearby. They send us a ton of internship emails, your friends should have gotten some of them...I'd think.

Should I tell colleges that I'm applying to that I've gone through some of the open courses on top colleges' websites?

I'm in community college, I want to transfer so I can go to a four year school because I finally figured out what my major was.
Every university I apply tp wants my high school transcript. Why? What I did in high school should be irrelevant if I've been getting good grades in college unless I took college level or special classes in high school like computer aided design, engineering, etc.
This really annoys me, because my high school years were bad. I started out good as a freshman, had a 3.8 GPA, long depressing story short, I barely graduated with a 2.007 GPA ... I know I could write a letter with my application explaining my situation, but I can't help but think in the back of my mind I'll never get into a higher level university because of a few bad years during my youth. Why as a society do we weigh so much on what someone did in 4 years of their life, during the most complicated time for everyone.

how many college credits do you have? after like 30 iirc, high school grades are pretty irrelevant.

Almost 60.
It's just annoying that they ask and I have to get a separate transcript for each college because you know, they have to have an official transcript. Mailed from the high school, unopened, with a specialized seal...
It's just the most annoying and frustrating process just to prove I actually graduated high school.

Weird. From my understanding, with that many credits most colleges don't even care what you did in HS.

| That does sound odd. When I transferred from a community college to a four year university, they were ONLY interested in my college transcript. They couldn't care any less about high school grades, or ACT/SAT scores. |

Private universities? After 36 credits they shouldn't even look at your HS credits at all if they are public. Privates can do what ever the hell they want with transfer students though

No point in planning. Everything ends up full or you can't get into the classes you want to or the professors you want to. Gotta hope for some add/drop magic.
Stupidest thing of all is that I want to get into a certain section but it won't let me because I need authorization...when the restriction is that you have to be a Sports Management major...WHICH I AM. Making me so angry.
But yea, my schedule sucks right now. Trying to fix it. |
Yeah really, hoping for some magic indeed. Speaking of, a few of my friends are doing Sports Management, where did you do your first internship? just out of curiosity? |
I actually got my ideal schedule minus one class. For some reason one of the classes I was trying to add said I need special permission (even though I met all of the requirements).
Here she is:
I was thinking about giving myself T/Th off and adding that Mgmt class 5:30MW but not worth it IMO. All the Japanese classes are on MF so no way I could avoid that.

Japanese? Theres no way Id get anything higher than a D in that..
I wanted to take an Italian class but it's an instant italian class, and i dont think id take it seriously unless it was a full class led by a professor.
My sched it:
Computer technology
public speaking
human development
environmental science
creative writing
16 credits, and should be fun because i had to take a half year off.
Also, justo will be attending my college soon (  ) |
