<p>hello,
I am currently pursuing a bachelors degree in india and have just started my first year this august. Can i still apply as a first year student this december via commonapp?</p>
<p>You’ll need to check the policy for each school in which you are interested to see if you would be a freshman applicant or a transfer. For some colleges any classes beyond HS make you a transfer. For others there may be a credit hour limit.</p>
<p>Ok thanks.also do transfer students join as freshmen or second year?</p>
<p>It depends on the number of credits that the college accepts. Some people transfer in with Freshman or Sophomore standing, some even with Junior standing. It depends.</p>
