<p>Hi, I just graduated from High School. I applied to NYU this year but sadly, did not get in. Instead, I am now going to the University of Miami. Tuition is free for me because my dad works for the medical school. I was wondering what the process, statistics, chances, etc. was for transferring after freshman year for sophomore year to NYU. NYC is where my heart is and I love NYU so much. I would love to be able to study there for my sophomore year. I am not even sure when the applying for transferring begin. Many say it is easier to get into college by transferring but is that true with NYU? I would most probably apply to the College of Arts and Sciences, btw. </p>
<p>My SAT scores from highschool were not very high, nor was my gpa but I plan to really succeed at UM. Should I re-take my SAT to better my chances this year?</p>
<p>If you could not get in for your freshman year and with lower SAT scores and GPA, it will be very difficult to get in as a sophomore because your high school grades will still be considered.</p>
<p>That’s why I was wondering if I should retake my SAT this year.</p>
<p>That still wont negate your hs GPA and are you certain NYU will even take it orif it will hold as much weight as a college student.</p>
<p>Your “safest” bet would be to at least get a year under your belt and let time pass from your high school stats.</p>
<p>I was wondering if the choice of classes mattered? I am undecided and so I am taking many different classes to see what it is I gravitate towards so that I can choose a major for sophomore year. I am taking Math, Art History, Political Science, Psychology and Sociology. Next semester, I am taking an English class (I placed out of the English class for first semester because of my ACT score) and probably a science class 2nd semester as well, because pre-med could be an option for me. </p>
<p>If I get straight A’s, do the classes I take matter? I know online it says that most transferees are in liberal arts courses but that’s all it pretty much says.</p>
