<p>Hey all, </p>
<p>I'm just trying to gauge how competitive it is to transfer into the Applied Econ program of CALS. I should still have close to a 4.0 from a mediocre public by the time I attempt to xfer, but I will most likely not have completed even a single semester of Biology. Do they highly frown upon this (the online website says two semesters of bio is recommended for applied ec but not required).</p>
<p>Any assistance would be highly appreciated.</p>
<p>Transfer is not easy anywhere, but you have a good chance,
not completing biology yet should not be a problem</p>
<p>I have heard of several transfers.</p>
<p>Not extremely difficult. Can you apply to an alternate if you apply as a transfer?
check that</p>
<p>the 4.0 is very good, even from a public.
the applied economics program has a good rep</p>
<p>Thanks for the responses. </p>
<p>I’m still trying to decide whether to take Bio. I have literally no interest in the subject but I’m thinking the ad com may want to see it since the business program is a subset of the agriculture land-grant dept.</p>
