<p>i'm a transfer student who has completed nearly 4 semesters worth of classes and would like to transfer to a school in NY city, preferably in Manhattan. i have a 3.0 gpa and am a psychology major and just want to know what my best options are. thanks in advance for the help.</p>
<p>no u dont unless you goto stuy h.s. School in NY sucks.</p>
<p>yo jsberting, stop talking down about my city!</p>
<p>As a New Yorker, yes NYC is a great experience. If you would like some schools to look into with your GPA...you can try NYU (idk if youd get in, maybe...its pretty expensive) and Pace...which is prob a good bet for you. Those are both in Manhattan.</p>
<p>You can also look into Fordham and Manhattan College...these are in the Bronx, about 10-15 min by train to Manhattan. Those schools will match your GPA.</p>
<p>May i ask where you are coming from and why you wanna come to NYC? Also, what do you plan to do with your major...if u wanna be NYPD, check out John Jay which is on 10th ave. JJ is a CUNY school.</p>
<p>You might also wanna look at other CUNY schools Baruch is very good. CUNY Queens College is also a reputable school.</p>
<p>being an out of towner, you will prob think of the Bronx as being all gang ridden and stuff...its not. Some parts are, just liek everywhere else...but where MC and Fordham are are really really nice neighborhoods.</p>
<p>i'm not opposed to going to school in the Bronx. thank you for your help with this. i'm moving to NY because i've always wanted to and right now is the time when i have the financial backing to do so. I'm not sure where i'm going to take my degree but i was considering forensic psychology. would the JJ school be good for that? also, what are your thought on the the New School University? i was thinkng of applying there.</p>
<p>never heard of new school university.</p>
<p>JJ would be good for that actually. Many graduates from JJ go on to the NYPD, forensic psychology will fit that. Youd have to commute though.</p>
<p>Fordham may work, a bit expensive..maybe idk ur budget...look into CUNY schools, ud have to commute but some like JJ and Queens and Baruch are very good.</p>
<p>I'd say look at Fordham, Eugene Lang/New School University, and maybe Manhattan College.</p>
<p>is my gpa too low for Pace?</p>
<p>JJ has a great, well known, forensic psych graduate program- check into whether or not they have an undergrad one.</p>
<p>no, you're not too low for pace.</p>
<p>You're totally not too low for Pace. I know a kid who got in there with a below thousand SAT and below a 3.0 in High school!</p>
