Anyone applying as a transfer to UVa and UNC sound off here!

Transfer Students
1

<p>I am a resident of Virginia and I attend the University of Tennessee. I am not satisfied with my current university because of the social aspect and the distance it is from home. Post here if you're applying to either one of these schools.</p>

2

<p>I'm not going to lie, I'm extremely nervous about transferring because this is my only chance. I've only been in college for a semester, and I'm only 19, but after this semester I'll be 6 credits away from being a junior. If I don't get into these schools this time, then my dreams are shot. Depressing way to look at it, I know, but UNC and UVa are like tied for my dream schools. Hope I'm not the only one feeling that way.</p>

<p>i have already applied to UNC-Chapel Hill. I think we get our decisions in mid-april and the waiting period is killing me.</p>

4

<p>i'm thinking of applying to both. From california.</p>

5

<p>I live in IL and UVA and UNC are my top choices too. Even though I am applying about 12 different schools all over the country, they are definately the most favorable.<br>
Anyways, what GPA do applicants applying those two schools have? I mean transfer students...OK
and what other colleges are you applying to?</p>

6

<p>I have already applied to UNC, UVa, Virginia Tech, and my back is JMU (but I have no desire to go there). Lord I hope I get into UNC!</p>

<p>i applied to upenn, umich-ross, UNC-CHAPEL HILL, indiana-bloomington</p>

9

<p>Yeah I applied to UVA.. I also applied to Tech and JMU but id really like to get into UVA.</p>

10

<p>I'm applying to UNC-Chapel Hill. I really, really, really hope I get in.</p>

11

<p>I applied to UNC Chapel Hill and that is my first choice if accepted.</p>

12

<p>same here. i feel like it'll be a good match for me. also because penn has like an 8% acceptance rate and umich:ross only admits like 15 external transfers a year.</p>

<p>c'mon CHAPEL HILL! PLEASE let me in!!! :]</p>

<p>I'm applying to UVA, Virginia Tech, William & Mary and Longwood from a community college. I'll have my AA and I'm in-state. I have a 3.85.</p>

<p>UVA is my absolute #1 choice and it would be amazing if I were accepted.</p>

<p>with a 3.85 you'll most likely get into UVa, unless you are applying for the comm school</p>
