<p>Anyone applying to McIntire?</p>

<p>Hey Sephyre, I’m considering applying Mcintire next year, I want to ask you a question about the prerequisites. I finished all of them, except “Making business work”. But I came from a liberal arts college, and we don’t have this class at all! So is that mean I can’t be accepted?</p>

<p>@SabrinafromIN</p>

<p>Even most liberal art colleges offer some sort of business class. “Making Business Work” is a prerequisite, very basic business class, such as Business 100, or Business 101. Business Admin. is the most popular major in the U.S. so I am more than positive you’re college has it. If your college really does not have this, try and take a course from a community college over the Summer. If you still don’t know, I would advice emailing Miss Jennine Fields who works for the Comm school and will tell you exactly what classes are transferable and need to be taken for McIntire equivalence. </p>

<p>Hope this helps!</p>

<p>Update on the UVA Transfer blog! Files <em>should</em> be complete, and you officially have permission to contact admissions about any missing materials. Now I’m ready for “View Decision”…</p>

<p>29 days left!</p>

<p>Brishe, why don’t you check if you’ve filled the GAA requirements?</p>

<p>I have checked, and I do. I just have to finish the semester! Still paranoid though haha</p>

<p>27 days left! Anyone nervous or is it just me? Anyone feeling confident?</p>

<p>Nervous! I went through this last year only to get rejected, and even though I was kind of expecting it, it was no fun :frowning: April finally being here is only making it worse; I have no patience left!</p>

<p>Hi all, I have a few questions about transferring to UVA. </p>

<p>I am a high school senior, and will be attending VCU next year. However, I hope to transfer to UVA for my sophomore year. Will the transition be difficult? I read the “Transfer Guide” on the UVA website and it says the SAT or ACT will be one of the requirements. So does that mean I have to take the Reasoning test/ACT again as a college student? Also, what would be the reasonable college GPA for transfer students? The site says “B average,” but that seems a bit too low for UVA?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance.</p>
