<p>I just finished high school and want to apply again to colleges for next year. The one question I have is that I am studying abroad this year while technically enrolled at a university. However, I want to apply as a freshman to another school rather than transfer. I know that if i got in, i'd be giving up any credit for the year abroad but can some1 please help me with my options here.</p>
<p>you may be able to apply as a freshman if the college has a certain number of units req. to be considered a transfer student. keep in mind that many schools have as few as 12 units as a req. for transfer, make sure you know the policies of the university you'll apply to as a freshman.</p>
