<p>Are there any other transfer applicants or current transfer students on this board? I’'ll be applying for sophomore transfer from Georgetown University.</p>
<p>lol oh? i'm just interested, because I'm debating whether or not to apply to Georgetown myself - why would you like to leave it?</p>
<p>well, firstly, I'd like to take some classes in engineering, and Georgetown doesn't have an engineering school or departments(i didn't know i'd want to do this until after starting college). Also, Penn has an interschool minor in biological basis of behavior and healthcare management, which is EXACTLY what i want(I just finished taking Healthcare in America:the fractured system at gtown, and loved it, but I want more). Also, Penn has an African Studies department, and I'd like to take some courses in that area, mostly to learn more about myself as well as learn more about Africa, possibly even take Yoruba(i'd love to learn an African language). Also, from what I understand, the Penn Band allows string players as well to join, and that's a really unique opportunity, and I'd love to do that(I play the viola in the orchestra here, concert tonight, yay).</p>
<p>So, Georgetown is an AMAZING school, but for what I want to accomplish in my undergrad career, Penn would be a better fit.</p>
