chances, in a tough situation

Transfer Students
1

<p>I'm in a pickle right now. I used to be enrolled at a top 100 university and transferred to a top 50 university at the beginning of this school year.</p>

<p>However, recently, my family has been going through a lot of problems and I am beginning to think I should finish up college close to home...</p>

<p>I was wondering:</p>

<p>Do you guys think transferring twice will severely impact my chances?</p>

<p>and what are my chances at:
BU
Northeastern
Brandeis </p>

<p>stats:
2nd semester soph standing
high school, 3.0 maybe? i cant really remember, but like a B average</p>

<p>sats were pretty bad like a 1700 or something</p>

<p>gpa at old school ~3.7</p>

<p>last semester 3.57</p>

<p>thanks.</p>

<p>Northeastern- you should be in
BU- good chance
Brandeis- iffy</p>

<p>in at northeastern. but you know most people at northeastern are on a 5-year coop plan?</p>

<p>bu- agree, good chance</p>

<p>brandeis - they have a higher transfer accept rate than freshman acceptance rate, so give it a shot.. i don't think transferring twice will hurt you if you do a good job of explaining your circumstances in your essays.</p>

<p>thanks guys.</p>

<p>yeah im aware of the co-op program, but i don't really think it is that important for my major, so i will probably opt out of it.</p>

<p>Yeah, I think you could benefit at Brandeis even more if you're a minority. They're always looking for diversity.</p>
