<p>Can anyone tell me about their experience in transferring into the Business School after Sophmore year ? How competitive is it ? My son applied for Business but was accepted into Letters and Sciences-Freshman Connection . After attending the Open House for Admitted Students last week, it seems very tough. And what is the deal with Shady Grove ? It seems verrrry unappealing to have to travel 45 min each day to another campus.</p>
<p>Yeah, Shady Grove is sort of a last resort option.</p>
<p>I did the internal transfer. I got very good grades in the business gateway courses (except a B- in statistics) and generally did well on all my other courses. I had a 3.6 when I applied, one very detailed letter of recommendation, and a bit of leadership experience in a campus club.</p>
<p>The acceptance rate for it is a lot higher than folks would have you believe.</p>
<p>Thank you so much for your reply. Did you also do Internship work as well ? The advisors I spoke to mentioned they wanted to see you in internships in addition to alot of leadership.</p>
