<p>I went to the UPenn site for transfers and it didn’t say the exact requirements…An Ivy like that might ask for highschool/SATs like Cornell does. You should contact them and ask. If all is good, apply, but definately have back ups as well. With your GPA, you can easily transfer to a decent school.</p>
<p>“Well that’s not good. My SAT scores aren’t really great. Why on earth do companies care about our SAT scores. It’s highschool.”</p>
<p>Essentially, it’s akin to an IQ test. It’s probably better than anything else that most people will have. </p>
<p>You could take it again if you were aiming for one of those jobs that would request it. You could also take a GRE or something (maybe if you were aiming at investment banking a GMAT?). Even so, that was the only engineering type job I saw with those requested.</p>

<p>Thank you for the insight. I will probably contact as you said and try to establish a precise list of what I need. As for backups, I really do not know what schools I should be looking into. If you any suggestion, please let me know. </p>
<p>@ EngineerHead,</p>
<p>Your answer seems fair enough.</p>
<p>Where do you live? I’m right outside philly,PA, so I applied to just the local schools. It depends if you are planning on going away or not.</p>
<p>I am currently in NYC but I don’t mind going out of state. It was last year that I visited Philly and fell in love with Penn. The ambiance of the city is so much different from that of NYC.</p>
<p>Upenn is beautiful. I’ll be attending college at Drexel which is next to it. We have an ugly campus, so I hear sometimes we go onto UPenn to enjoy the park and stuff. lol</p>
<p>But since you live in the northeast, I’m sure you will have plenty of good schools to consider without having to go too far away.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot, I have had the chance to visit Drexel as well. What I really liked about Philly was the integration of the two universities into the city. You can walk a great deal of distance within the city and it still feels like you are in a campus.</p>
