If I want to transfer my sophomore year, when do I transfer?

<p>If my apply now, the schools that I want to go to will not accept me now, if they're looking at my high school scores. Unless they look at my college GPA, which I don't even have yet. My grades in high school were a bit low. When do I apply?</p>

<p>If you apply this winter for a Fall 2011 soph transfer, schools will only see your first sem/qt of grades when evaluating your admission. You can apply next fall for a spring 2012 soph+ transfer and colleges will see all of your fr grades; but not all schools take spring transfers. Finally, you can apply a year from this winter for a Fall 2012 jr transfer and colleges will see a year and a half of your college record.</p>
