<p>Hey guys I am applying for spring admission this year. I will be entering college in January 2014. Because of the limited choices, I'm going to transfer college as soon as I can. (I really don't care where I go this January but transferring is my ultimate goal).</p>
<p>How soon can I transfer? Can I transfer and start in another college fall of 2014? Or do I have to do a whole year and then transfer in 2015?</p>
<p>I apologize in advance if this seems all confusing. </p>
<p>THanks guys!</p>
<p>Yes, you can transfer after 1 sem. But you need to recognize that you will be submitting your application before completing any college coursework, and the decision will be made with at most a mid-sem report. So you will be evaluated mostly on your HS record and standardized testing.</p>
<p>Also note that colleges vary in who applies as a fr vs. a transfer applicant. With 1 sem/about 15 credits of post-HS college coursework, you will be considered a fr applicant at some schools and a transfer at others, you need to check the college websites for details.</p>
