Columbia Transfer Advice

<p>Hey guys! i'm a NYU Stern freshman looking to transfer to Columbia College for 2010. Anyone have any tips or advice? I know that i have to have like close to a 4.0 gpa ><. If any transfers would be willing to share their stats, it would be totally awesome!</p>

<p>Please, PLEASE do not make duplicate posts.</p>

<p>OO sryy the first time i tried, my computer said that there was an error and the post failed. i didnt realize there were 2 posts until now. is there some way i can like delete the other one?</p>

<p>does columbia allow u to retake sat’s or sat II’s?</p>

<p>Yes, but there is no need for it. In short, the SATs are a HS level test, and improving your score in college is expected. Unless you did TERRIBLE (<1850), do not retake.</p>

<p>^Not true, retake for the highest possible score if aiming for Columbia. You want at least their freshmen median.</p>

<p>do either of you have factual evidence to support your claims?</p>

<p>Ummmm…I used to be an adcom at any ivy? And because it was many moons ago and this question comes up again and again, I queried two top college adcoms about a month ago.</p>

<p>thanks for the info!</p>

<p>Lol… I talked to the adcoms at Penn.</p>

<p>i’m inclined to believe what adcoms say to each other, as opposed to what adcoms say to the general public.<br>
nonetheless, i hope there’s some veracity to what you’ve been told viola, because i didn’t retake the SATs before applying for transfer admission at penn.</p>

<p>thanks for the info guys!</p>
