<p>I'm currently a freshman (originally from Pittsburgh) and I attend a relatively prestigious private school in the NE. Due to some circumstances I want to transfer to Pitt for Fall 09, but I don't know if I should send in my application yet.</p>
<p>I took 12 credits first semester and ended up with a 3.0 (there were some extreme circumstances however, and taking them into consideration a 3.0 is miraculous) and I'm taking 17 now. I feel as if a 3.0 isn't competitive enough to get accepted, so I'm thinking about waiting. I also want to wait because I'm looking at other schools, and I don't want to have to commit to Pitt before hearing their decisions. But at the same time I want housing, so I feel I should send my application in sooner rather than later.</p>
<p>Basically, what do you think I should do?</p>
