<p>Hello, I am wondering if I am a candidate to transfer to Michigan. Currently I am a freshman Virginia Tech currently an undecided student.</p>
<p>As of right now I have a 3.83 GPA while taking the standard 15 credit course load. I would be applying for the Fall of 2014. Hypothetically if I kept my grades at the 3.6+ threshold what would my chances be?
Currently taking:
US History
European History
Honors Freshman English
Intro World Politics
Freshman Seminar</p>
<p>Planning on taking
US Gov & Politics
Creative Writing
Intro Sociology
Calc I
Astronomy</p>
<p>I would be applying to the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts
I would be trying to major in History or Political Science
I have many ECs from High School and right now am involved with intramural sports</p>
<p>From a Private Prep School I had a 3.4 UW GPA with an upward trend along with a 31 ACT score.</p>
<p>Any Info would be greatly appreciated</p>
<p>Sounds to me like you’ve got a strong chance of transferring at some point. Keep your grades up (3.83 is a great GPA!) and take as many pre-requisites/gen ed courses as you can (which it looks like you’re doing). They like to see that their transfer students can handle a college workload and have gotten a lot of credit hours under their belt (the most credits you can transfer is 60, so try to get close to that).</p>
<p>I’m a transfer student too and I just graduated this May from LSA - I graduated from high school in 2009, applied for Winter transfer my sophomore year at a local college, got rejected, got more credits/kept my GPA up, and was accepted for Fall transfer to LSA my junior year when I applied again. They state explicitly that they prefer to take junior-year transfers, so don’t be discouraged if you apply for Fall 2014 and get rejected. If you still want to go to U of M, apply again to transfer your junior year. </p>
<p>Also, one piece of advice: save all your syllabi/tests from your classes. It’s a pain in the neck but it makes it so much easier to transfer. Since you go to college out of state they might be more picky about which of your classes transfer over to U of M, and you want to be able to get as many transferred as possible. If you save syllabi and tests from your courses at VT, you can use them to appeal a credit transfer. Good luck and keep up your good work!</p>
<p>Hi. I’m wondering if you guys could chance me as well. I applied my senior year, got wait-listed, then rejected. I’m planning on transferring to LSA for the Fall semester of 2014 as an Econ major.</p>

<p>I know my ACT is mediocre but would I still have some chance?</p>
