<p>usually, do we need to take specific courses in order to a certain school? or we can study anything we want and then try to get a good GPA and then transfer?</p>
<p>Yes anything, just don't take too much trash because there are only so many "unrestricted electives" u need to graduate with. It's best to take basic General Education courses that you need to graduate with like Math English writing, and sciences.</p>
<p>I mean courses and majors in college, like if I wanna transfer to wharton do I need to prepare some calculus courses in my first college year?? or I can just transfer from a philosophy major without taking math?</p>
<p>The Wharton transfer requirements I believe are quite strict. I think you need a copious amount of courses in calc and macro/micro econ among others. I'm not exactly sure though.</p>
<p>I've heard that transferring to Wharton is extremely difficult; even more so than the other Ivies and top colleges simply because it is such a specialized field for undergraduates. If you are not currently enrolled in a finance/business or at least a econ program, you are probably not going to be a competitive transfer candidate. Why not consider business school (MBA? or grad) AFTER you get your philosophy degree? It's not unheard of and some employers actually like to have a diverse group of employees who could think in a variety of ways. Nothing is more boring than a bunch of undergrad business majors working together at an office.</p>
<p>well, first philosophy is not my major,,,, just a example, and how about other business and econ programs, like Stern and other ivies</p>
<p>do I have to take strict courses?</p>
<p>If you are transferring to a UC, then yes, there are some requirements for some majors.</p>

<p>If you want to transfer to a school like Wharton, your best bet would be to check what a Freshman and Sophomore at that school typically take for the major you are considering. Then you should try to come as close to that as possible in choosing your courses.</p>
<p>You don't have to do it that way, but that will give you the strongest chances.</p>
<p>oh, that s a good news for me~</p>
