Hello, I am looking to transfer to UVA I initially, didn’t think I would want to go to UVA but after spending some time there and meeting people on campus and hearing them talk about the school, I realized it is the right place for me. I am a first year student, I have tons of AP credit and I am taking 18 credit hours this semester (taking 6 more over winter) in order to meet the 24 credit hour minimum. Some deans are telling me to go for it that I can do it and one dean flat out told me it won’t happen, he’s never seen a first year student do it and it won’t ever happen. So my question is, is it possible to successfully transfer to UVA, I am applying under Econ if that makes any difference. I have APs, I have rigorous college courses (200 level and higher as a freshman), I am willing to work and I want to at least try and transfer. Thanks in advance.
Edit: Also, if you have successfully transferred to UVA can you give a bit of insight on your credentials such as GPA, school you were applying in to, ECs, etc? Thanks
