<p>hello so I know a lot of people transfer after two semesters is it ok if i transfer after only one semester? my high school record is great i had a 4.2 gpa i heard that if you have only been there for one semester than they look more closely at your high school record than your college record. </p>
<p>secondly my semester does not end until dec 20 a lot of deadlines are before that am i still eligible to apply?</p>
<p>I think it depends on the school.</p>
<p>Read the Transfer Admissions 101 sticky thread. What school do you want to transfer to? They might or might not accept freshman transfers in the spring.</p>
<p>Why do you want to trasnfer? (It may be too soon to really know if the current place is a misfit, or if it just needs more time. Usually, it just needs more time). </p>
<p>Of course, they look more closely at your hs record in a case like this. Because... you don't have a college record. With the possible exception of a midterm report.</p>

<p>Depends on the school if they allow Winter transfers or not. I've seen both in top universities. </p>
<p>Yes, schools will look, and put more weight on your HS GPA more than your college if you've been there for 1-2 semesters. </p>
<p>Even if your semester doesn't end until the 20th, grades won't come out until a lot later, schools may choose to accept you based on your HS application, or just wait until your college grades are out. Varies from school to school</p>
