<p>Do you guys intend to transfer in soph year or junior year. I was planing to transfer into UMCP soph year since I'm going to a private commuter school in NY. St. Johns university why does everyone want to transfer out of maryland</p>
<p>lol i don't think everyone wants to, it's just options..and if i did transfer to like uva, i'd prolly try to do it soph year..but idk, we'll see.</p>
<p>THey only consider your first term stats correct. So if I had a bad h.s portfolio but my college numbers were a dramtic increase would I have a chance after just one semester of college work</p>
<p>i had seriously thought about transferring to NYU after my first semester (i had gotten accepted to the stern school of business when i applied in high schol, and had a decent GPA) but decided not to. i had a lot of friends there, plus a 4-year in the making love interest, and i was still kicking myself over turning down an acceptance to (what was then) the #3 business school in the country.</p>
<p>i'm glad i didn't leave. i ended up having a lot more fun 2nd semester than i did 1st semester, and now i couldn't be happier here at UMD. (plus the NYU love interest is out of the picture now)</p>
<p>no idea about any official transfer rates, but that's my story :)</p>
