<p>Also, could someone tell me about the application after the common app? I can’t see it.</p>

<p>The avg GPA for Transfers was 3.4 or something. You’re probably in kid.</p>

<p>What app after Common app? The supplement? It’s on there…</p>

<p>There’s no out of state student cap for transfers like there is for freshman applicants. I would think it’s a lot easier to transfer in OOS than be admitted as a freshman. A 4.0 pre med GPA? I think you have a really strong chance of being admitted. Good luck.</p>
