<p>You're in the right line for an acceptance. Your SAT scores are in the right range, although they could certainly go higher. Your SAT II scores are a little low, but nothing will really change those. You have normal ECs, which doesn't really help you. Your best bet would be to apply to the NHS. You can transfer between the colleges, but as I am not a student, I can't say how easy this is.</p>

<p>You can transfer either before you start or after your freshmen year. I decided not to do it but basically what I was told was that it involved writing a letter to the dean of the school you want to switch to and also writing the essay you would've written had you applied to that school. The dean then decides whether or not you can switch based on that.</p>

<p>That being said, you don't have to choose the nursing school just because you want to go to med school. I'm Pre-Med and in the College and there here are plenty of Pre-Med students in all 4 schools. Remember, you can major in pretty much anything you want. You just have to make sure you take certain classes along the way in order to apply to med school. Of course that would be a little more difficult in MSB or SFS (because you'd have to take a lot of other classes that wouldn't help your med school requirements) but if the major you're interested is in one of those schools, it can be done.</p>
