Hi fellow students, I've been looking into Carnegie Mellon's community college and was wondering if anyone knows about their acceptance rate. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
It seems like there may be a bit of confusion here. Carnegie Mellon University is a private research university and is not affiliated with any community colleges. Can you clarify if you are referring to a particular program or institute within Carnegie Mellon University?
Otherwise, if you are interested in applying to a community college and subsequently transferring to a school like Carnegie Mellon, that's definitely a route some students take. In such a case, it'd be helpful to specialize in a field of study that Carnegie Mellon is known for, such as computer science or engineering, maintain a high GPA at the community college, and possibly even do related internships or extracurriculars to demonstrate your skills and commitment to that field. Carnegie Mellon looks for proof of exceptional skill and passion, so really investing in your chosen field should help your transfer application stand out.
Also, don't forget to keep an eye out for any specific transfer requirements Carnegie Mellon may have, such as how many credits they can accept from your community college.
I hope this was helpful, and best of luck with your journey!
