Not sure what classes I should take my first year at CC.

Transfer Students

I have my transfer schools listed out. My CC is out of all these states but I’m planning to come in as a Sophomore. I will apply to UNC, UVA, Emory, Notre Dame, Vanderbilt, W&M (any other options you all recommend?). When I go to their websites, they don’t have a specific guideline for transferring in terms of classes. I’m lost in which what classes I should take at CC. I checked UNC’s transfer equivalency table and the basic 101/intro classes transfer from my CC. But when I go to those other schools’ websites my CC doesn’t show up for transfer equivalency. I’m enrolled at my CC for an Associate in Science (this is 2 years but I can ditch the program early and transfer). Should I just “do the norm” and follow my Associates in Science curriculum? My goal in the end is to get into those schools as an Econ major and internally transfer into their business school. MUCH easier than externally transfer into their business schools which is impossible.

I’m so lost so anything will help, thanks!

Look at the four year plans of study for econ and business, and figure out what the first year courses are. Those are things you should think about taking along with classes that are likely to fulfill gen ed requirements.

Look up the frosh/soph courses for your intended majors at each school, then check for the equivalent courses at your CC. Also check for general education requirements for transfer admission.

Can you do an AA in economics or AS in business then? Sounds like that’s the right strategy.

@happymomof1 so, If to get in the business schools for UNC and UVA you need to go into the College or Arts and Sciences prior to applying to the business schools. So for now, I should look at the first year curriculum for mathematics or econ? Not the curriculum for the business school?

@ucbalumnus do I enroll in first year classes that match the curriculum for Finance or Mathematics? I need to enroll in the College of Arts and Sciences prior to applying to the b school. Basically, I’ll be coming in as a Math (or econ) major as a sophomore.
