So I was accepted into bc for computer science, but I am more interested in things like finance majors. Is there anyway I can transfer into Carroll or anything like that? If it helps, I was comparing my stats to those of accepted Carroll students of this year and they seem very similar, if not better.
Unfortunately, it is nearly impossible to transfer internally from MCAS to CSOM. I think I read somewhere that they actually don’t take any internal transfers to CSOM, but there are few spots for external transfers.
If I had a nickel for every one of these threads that get posted, I could retire. CSOM now takes up to 10 internal transfers (that’s new this year). MCAS students can take up to 8 courses in CSOM, though. If you end up interviewing for finance jobs, one of the first questions you may be asked is “If you’re so interested in finance, why are you in MCAS?” There are many good answers to that question, of course. Just tell your story.
Thanks for the info! Do you think they would allow me to transfer in as a freshman? Who should I contact about that? If I could switch to Carroll then I may put bc as my top choice college.
Doubtful if they will let you transfer to CSOM prior to enrolling. You can ask but be prepared for a no.
No chance of transferring before you even begin. You can apply to transfer late in freshman year.
