<p>What are my chances as a transfer student?</p>
<p>I'm looking to transfer from CUNY College of Staten Island (4 year)</p>
<p>Credentials:
High School GPA: 92 (junior year and senior year was 97.5)
SAT: 1610 :/ (Planning on retaking my SAT if need be)
College GPA: 3.77
Credits taken: 29 (current) 45 (by end of this semester) 61 (expected by end of spring semester)
NSCS Scholar
Deans List for my current college</p>
<p>What are my chances for Boston University (dream school), UMass-Amherst, Syracuse, Iona, Penn St, Lesley University, Marist, Rutgers-New Brunswick and Fairleigh Dickinson-Florham</p>
<p>As you can see, I LOVE everything about Massachusetts and Boston is my dream city. Everything about Boston I love. So any other recommendations for schools in or around Boston would be highly appreciated. </p>
<p>Coming from NYC, Boston puts NYC to shame in my eyes in quality of life. Whether I go to continue college there or not, Commonwealth Ave will one day be my residence.</p>
<p>I forgot to add:</p>
<p>I’m a college sophomore in my 3rd semester. The classes I have taken so far are:</p>
<p>Astronomy 100- A
Astronomy 101- A
Astronomy 102- A-
Core 100- A

History 245 Past and Present America- (currently enrolled into)

<p>Some of these classes may have you shaking your head in terms of direction but welcome to the hell of the CUNY system.</p>
<p>Wow it’s the total opposite for me. I live in Boston but I love everything about New York and want to live there someday! As for UMass Amherst, since you have 29 completed credits your high school stats and SAT scores aren’t necessary as it is stated on their website (correct me if I’m wrong), but I think you have a good chance at getting in. UMass Amherst is a great school with so many activities going on you’ll never find yourself bored. It has around 27k students so it is a great little college town. I also think you have a good shot at BU, but keep in mind that school very expensive! Have you considered UMass Boston? It’s way cheaper and even though there is no dorms, there is a housing system for students in actual apartments and you also get to keep living there even after you graduate! (far cheaper than paying room and board, but if money is not an issue, just disregard this). </p>
