Cant figure out which school I want to transfer

<p>I currently go to Michigan State University. I was on a good track my first year but I started to get stressed out about family and money issues causing my grades to go down. I will be transferring in the Spring but need input on which school I should go to. I would like to graduate under a engineering degree but due to my my grades it is tougher to get in colleges under that major with my GPA.</p>

<p>First pick ASU(Arizona State) I would like to go there as a number one pick. Only thing is they take GPA that are 3.0 and above for engineering. I was thinking I could go in with Mathematics and take easy classes my first semester getting a 3.5 and above and switching to engineering the following semester. And I read that ASU does incorporate transfer GPA and one semester with at least a 3.2 or above will get me their. I also got accepted in the mathematics program.</p>

<p>My next pick is University of Arizona. Which I applied yesterday and pass all requirements I can transfer in with my GPA for the engineering program. Would seems I will most likely get accepted. </p>

<p>Last pick is University of Nevada at Las Vegas, which I have got accepted to as well.</p>

<p>Ideas?</p>

<p>Apply to ASU for the major you want. Do not count on being able to transfer from one department to another. Even if you manage to do that, it will take you that much longer to finish your program. </p>

<p>If you are admitted to both UNLV and U of AZ, find out which of your credits will transfer to each place so that you can estimate how long you will be studying there, and how much it might cost. That will help you determine which of those two will be the best choice.</p>

<p>If you also get into ASU for engineering, check the transfer credit situation, and get a good estimate of the cost. That way you will know if it is the best deal of all.</p>
