so I thought at first that I was rejected after seeing my decision in the spring after being deferred during ed, but I got an email literally 2-3 weeks later and it was from the hotel school about the TO option. this option basically says that If I took these 2 courses at another institution, in my case it’s UCF, and obtain a 3.0 and no grade lower than a C, I am eligible to be a “guaranteed transfer student”. the thing is, even after endless hours of research, consulting with my college advisor/counselor, family, friends, etc., I still go back and forth between the schools. both hospitality programs are great IMO, but when it comes down to it, I don’t know what better for me in the future. I think I have a very common dream most students have after graduating college which is to have a job, make money, and live a life they dreamed of. (sorry if I generalized it too much but that’s the gist of what I’d like to experience). I don’t understand truly why im so torn between this decision because cornell has been my dream school ever since I found out I wanted to do something in hospitality. I mean, costs, location, experience, etc. have been so many things I’ve researched on but I just really don’t know. So I’m here to ask for more information from current students and alumni from UCF & cornell about what these schools have brought for them and what is the “better option”.
Hi, I just saw this post. I thought the transfer option was not available for SHA?
The transfer option is available for SHA students, in fact this year there are 60 transfer students coming from other universities, and a handful of students were offered the TO. If this school is your dream then by all means TO is the way to go, if not then consider your other options
