Hi,
I am currently thinking about going to Bellevue College rather than Arizona State University because of the higher possibility to transfer to University of Washington in Seattle.
The thinking is that even if I get rejected in two years from UWS, I can always just go back to Arizona State given they accept over 80% of applicants and I have already been accepted in to their business program.

Is this plan reasonable? Should I go to Bellevue College to then transfer or apply to transfer in to UWS? How likely is it that I will get in? From my friends who are currently in Bellevue who preformed about the same as me in High School are all getting around a 3.8 GPA there in the two year Business Program.

Any input would be great! Important time in my life :confused:

If you have a high GPA, earn a Direct Transfer Agreement (DTA) Associate of Arts and Sciences, and take all the business prerequisites so that you are well-prepared to be an entering Junior, then you have a very good chance of being accepted by UW. If that is your goal, then I would get that DTA degree from Bellevue. Worst case scenario would be that you transfer to ASU if you don’t get into UW, which is hardly a bad thing.
