Spring 2018 Transfer Thread

I know this is pretty premature, but the application for Spring transfer is already open so I figured I’d make a thread!

I’ve been watching this community for a while to learn from other college students/family and prep myself, but I just made an account today.

I have GAA from my CC but I know they take less students in for Spring semester. I was unable to apply for Fall as I did not have the correct math requirement, but I do now! Put my application in super early so now it’s the waiting game (I think decisions start rolling out November 1).

Going to tour GMU this weekend! I really want to see what dorm I would be in but I don’t know if they’ll show us.

Anyone else in my boat or have any advice?

What did you think of GMU tour?

UPDATE: I received my acceptance letter last night when checking my application portal! I was one class short I think, of GAA but I got in regardless!!

I thought the campus was gorgeous, I was expecting it to be huge but it wasn’t really. All the buildings are pretty much centered around Patriot Circle. It ended up being a tour for freshmen but I went anyway to see it all. We saw inside a freshman dorm and the Johnson Center (their main building with like a food court, bookstore) but were unable to go into any other buildings because they were doing cleaning for the upcoming move in week.

I wish we could have seen more but I loved it and truly did feel like home for me! Now trying to find out about housing.
