How does fall semester count if transferring in spring semester?

<p>Almost every college i'm applying to has a different minimum of transfer credits. Do the credits I take during fall have any effect on my credits taken or gpa if i wish to transfer in spring? Im not sure how that system works.</p>

<p>Unless stated otherwise, the number of credits is the number you will have completed when you transfer, not when you apply. So for a spring transfer, count the number through fall semester.</p>

<p>As far as gpa, the most they would see for fall semester is an unofficial mid-term report, they will not see final fall grades when decisions are made.</p>
