<p>One other thing to consider is most colleges want to see your grades for general education/area/major requirements prior to giving you a decision. In your case they can see how well you have done academically in your area of interest but not as an overall student. Even if you agree to take the courses over the summer they won’t be able to see your grades for those courses before a decision is rendered. A word of advice to students in your position that are considering to transfer to another college/university is to do your research. Go online to their transfer site, go to their info/open houses for transfer students-if this is not possible then email an admissions department and ask about all requirements. I know of many students that want to go to another school and then miss this important step to make sure they can dovetail into it. </p>
<p>Also, excellent post Brishe, as usual. And great question Hazel. I thought that myself.</p>
<p>My best to you in your endeavors it sounds like you have done quite well at VT in your designated major and if you don’t get into UVa be proud of your accomplishments and your VT degree. Well done!</p>
