Hi, I’m currently a freshman at my local (not community) college, and aspire to be a Nurse Practitioner.
I’m taking 17 credits:
Intro. to Statistics, Intro. to Chemistry w/ lab, Anatomy & Physiology 1 w/ lab, Intro. to Philosophy, and Composition 2.
I have a GPA of ~3.9.
I know that Cornell’s College of Human Ecology has an HSBS major, and it fits my personal and career goals extremely well. But I’ve noticed that to transfer as a sophomore, you have to have completed the following:
1.) 8 credits of Chemistry w/ lab (I’ve got this covered)
2.) 8 credits of Intro. to Biology w/ lab
3.) 6 credits of English Comp. (I got a 3 on AP Lit in high school and I’m taking Comp. 2 now, so I have this covered)
4.) 3 credits of Calculus (My college won’t let me take Calc. this year because I didn’t take AP Calc in high school, I only took honors)
5.) 3 credits of a social science (which I’m taking next semester)
6.) 3 credits of Statistics (I have this covered)
7.) 3 credits of Nutritional Sciences (My college won’t let me take this until I’ve completed A&P 2, so I can’t take it during my freshman year)
8.) Another 3 credits of a social science (I passed my AP Psych exam, so I have this covered also)
SO my questions are:
Will my 8 credits of A&P w/ labs transfer as a year long Intro. to Biology course? If not, will I not be able to transfer as a sophomore?
If my college won’t let me take Calculus or Nutritional Sciences yet because of their own pre-req requirements, will Cornell hold this against me?
