I Want to Transfer Anywhere?

Transfer Students
1

<p>Fall 2007 semester here at my community college in southern california is my 2nd year in college overall. </p>

<p>I'm carrying a 3.3 gpa and will most likely be at 3.5 gpa when spring 2008 is over. </p>

<p>I feel like i've been at this college and living at home long enough and just want to transfer out. </p>

<p>Is this a wise decision and if so, what are some realistic colleges I can get into? </p>

<p>For these past 2 years i've only set my eyes on USC and 2 UC's. . . </p>

<p>I know there are many more schools out there and should perhaps look into them, seeing as they might be my gateway outta here sooner. </p>

<p>I'd really like to hear your remarks on this.. thanks!</p>

<p>if you're looking at some schools out of state, try for the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor. It may be a little reach for you, but hey, no harm in trying.. or UCSD, if it isnt one of the UC's you're looking at.</p>

<p>I don't suggest U-M for the sole reason that you'd be paying OOS. While it is a great school, if you were trying to save money by going to a CC, all of that would be wasted by going to an OOS college that doesn't give too much money.</p>

<p>You have a better shot at USC than you do the UC's because they don't like to accept out of state students. I would also reccomend looking into the University of Miami, you have a competitive gpa for it and it is ranked in the top 50.</p>

<p>1.More UCs</p>

<p>2.Is there any major that you are interested in?if you are interested in engineering,cal poly SLO can be a choice.</p>

<p>Yes, tell us your major.</p>

<p>Other considerations: what is the financial situation? Will you qualify for need-based aid? Where you are in California, choosing a UC or CSU might be your financially wisest option and you simply cannot beat the quality of the schools.</p>

<p>If you want to get away from living at home, well... California is a big state. Are the two UC's you are considering in SoCal? Is that where you are?</p>

<p>I certainly think it is a wise decision to look further afield for your final 2 years of college and expand your horizons. But we need to know about your interests, aid needs, type of location you would want, etc. before we could recommend possibilities.</p>
