<p>I am currently a Freshman at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, CA. I am wondering if it looks better as a transfer student post freshman yr or post sophomore yr or does it matter for USC? I hear that it is slightly easier to transfer as a junior. First semester I got a 3.6 gpa and am involved in many leadership roles already. I have an excellent internship lined up this summer in Beverly Hills as well. If I keep these grades and stay involved do you guys think I have a good shot for transfering to SC for junior yr?</p>
<p>I'm no expert by a long shot, but it seems you have a good chance. Why do you want to leave LMU? I was thinking of applying there along with USC.</p>
<p>You can apply after freshman year and then re-apply after sophomore year if you don't get in the first time around. And yes with those grades you have a good shot. Good luck!</p>
<p>if you apply for fall 2009 and are a freshman in college they need your high school stats where as if you apply as a sophomore they do not correct? and is there 2nd semester transfer for nxt yr?</p>
