<p>Is it a good idea going to UT then tryin to pull of an internal transfer to McCombs. How competitive would it be. Is it a better idea for me to go to nyu for econ then try and transfer over to McCombs</p>
<p>better idea to do interal transfer. Keep a minimum of a 3.5 GPA, take at least calculus and microeconomics and you should get in. Ideally you'll want to take Calc I, Calc II, Micro, Macro, and keep your GPA 3.6 to 3.7ish. They look strictly ONLY your GPA.</p>
<p>The first problem is actually trying to get into McCombs. They only have a couple hundred students. Plus if you're not in top 10% in Texas, or if you are out-of-state, I'd say screw it. Plus they only have about 10 internal transfers per year. Good Luck.</p>
<p>Actually McCombs has around 4000 students.</p>
<p>I think they are talking about the business honors program</p>
<p>Actually they aren't. Everything dcfca said has to do with the regular McCombs.</p>
<p>Yes, everything I said pertains to REGULAR McCombs.</p>
<p>Sorry guys, I believe I was referring to Honors. Good Luck.</p>
<p>Whoops, I was just talking about regular McCombs. How Competitive is that</p>
<p>"Actually McCombs has around 4000 students."</p>
<p>OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>MaddSkillz, I listed the exact requirements to transfer into mccombs internally in my post. Check that out.</p>
<p>Untitled - UT has 56000 people there so the 4000 number isn't that huge.</p>
<p>who here actually is already going to UT?</p>
<p>I am going to UT as we speak. Taking 22 hrs this semester</p>
<p>wow that sounds like a major haul!</p>
<p>i am attending UT. It is pretty difficult to transfer internally because so many people who didn't get in as freshman are applying again. A 3.7+ will probably get you in, and a 3.6 will be cutting it close. I'm in the BHP, so if you have any questions about either regular or honors.</p>
<p>dcfca- are you double majoring? That is a lot of credit hours! How much out of class work do you have to do?</p>
<p>anyone- how hard is it to double major across colleges?</p>
<p>its not really hard to double major across colleges. you just apply to the other schools and try to do all the pre-reqs. </p>
<p>as for the classwork -- mondays and wednesdays are kind of bad for me. i've got 5 classes. I'm getting used to it though.</p>
<p>Hey, Blaj, can you post your stats for BHP.. are you an instate student and what year are you? How rigorous is the program, since business is the hardest major at UT right..? Are you enjoying it?</p>
<p>Hey Faithful,</p>
<p>My stats are:
800 M 710 V
Top 2% from an instate HS with a lot of ECs
Jr. </p>
<p>BHP classes are definantly more intense than regular, with a lot of case studies. We do most of the same case studies as UT MBA. While the course load is a lot heavier, the grade distribution is better than regular business. I love the honors program. The best part are the students. They are so talented and smart, you can't help but learn from them. Most of the students could pretty much go to any Top25 school, including Wharton. </p>
<p>Regular Business isn't really considered hard when comparing it to engineering and some of the hard sciences. From my experience, BHP has about the same rigors as engineering, especially since a lot double major in Plan II Honors or other.</p>
<p>hmm.. but can you go to regular business and get top jobs etc or are they all taken by BHP students? How many students are in regular business again at UT?</p>
<p>You can transfer into BHP right even if you dont get in the frist year? Is it really hard to do that?</p>
<p>Did you have an business experience as a high school student?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
