Johns Hopkins

<p>Pardon me, as I am completely clueless. If anyone else knows more about transfers, please help me.</p>

<p>Is it possible for me to transfer from a normal college like, say, Rutgers to JHU after freshman year?</p>

<p>Does it not matter to get into a good college? because freshman year is when you have to take all your prerequisites anyway and theres no point in attending a good college because of all the pressure of high scores (in my case, i dont have good anything) when you can just transfer, right?</p>

<p>They require a GPA above a 3.0 and there is no minimum SAT/ACT score, whatever that means. Does that mean they require SAT II's, letter recommendations, and whatnot?</p>

<p>One last question, I don't understand the different umm departments? in colleges/universities. Can I get into Rutgers but not into Rutger's Pharmacy? Or are those two separate applications? If I get into plain Rutgers the first year undecided without a major, can I switch into JHU and get into the Medicine department? Or do I have to be extremely qualified and what does that mean? The transfer site for JHU says the transfer students are competitive? Is it even likely for me to have a chance at all? ("Due to space and availability" blah blah this is not a sure thing blah..)</p>

<p>Thank you for any help! I would appreciate it greatly.</p>
