I have a ? transfer student

<p>Would it hire my chance to get into schools like Cornell, Columbia, Brown, or even NYU if i applied as a sophomore instead of a Junior</p>

<p>My first semester is 4.0
2nd 4.0
about to become a sophomore, 3rd semester work for another 4.0
applying middle of my sophomore year....</p>

<p>I also intern 5 times a week at a law firm</p>

<p>my chances?
would it help applying as a sophomore instead of a junior thanks</p>

<p>Look at the websites of those colleges, most want a transfer student to be in residence for at least 2 years. Most fall transfer students apply in the middle of their fr or soph year, not as a jr.</p>

<p>that’s what im doing, i am applying as a transfer student in the middle of my sophomore year and i want 2 apply as a sophomore</p>

<p>Brown allows mid-year transfers but the deadline was quite a while ago. Columbia does not admit spring transfers.</p>

<p>Congrats on your great GPA. I’m not sure about NYU, but Cornell will look for more than just a high GPA. In particular, you’ll need a really good and compelling reason for wanting to transfer. The difficulty of your courses will also matter as well as your high school record a bit.</p>

<p>Also use correct English when you’re transferring and don’t put identifying information on here…</p>

<p>Also note that many schools do not accept Spring transfers - find out and plan accordingly.</p>

<p>Dshinka?
what the hell are u talking about?
i never said i wanted 2 go for Spring</p>

<p>i said i was planning on applying to these schools in after my 3rd semester (middle of sophomore year) and i was asking if i would have more of a chance applying as a sophomore (like sophomore year for columbia) instead of Junior year @ columbia
u get me…</p>

<p>pr0616, I hope your posts do not reflect your admission papers. Also, the way you wrote it out sounds like you finished your freshman year at school A, want to finish the first (Fall) semester there and then transfer, as in transferring to be in school B for the Spring semester, in which case the comment was completely valid since some schools do not allow Spring transfers.</p>

<p>If you have a very strong high school record and high SATs, apply as a soph. If you couldn’t have gotten in out of high school, the more college success the better.</p>

<p>lol yeah i did imply it the wrong way…
i got it
thanks yall</p>
