Possibly a weird question, lol.

Transfer Students
1

<p>Alright, I'm not sure about where I'm going, so I'm applying to 8 schools, one of which is in my hometown. Let's say I get accepted to those 8 schools as well.</p>

<p>If I go to this college in my hometown (and it's not a community college, either) for my first 2 years of college, and want to transfer (which is the plan if I go to the college in my hometown) to one of the other schools that I applied to and got accepted to...would it look good or bad that I was accepted 2 years ago? Would it help?</p>

<p>I'm just thinking of going to this school near home for my first 2 years of college, which I believe to be pretty much universal almost anywhere, and then transferring to one of my other schools of choice.</p>

<p>It will not hurt that you were accepted and chose not to go two years earlier. It might help. It is certainly a good sign that you were accepted, as it shows that you are the caliber of student they want. They will notice that and it will be a plus in your new application.</p>
