<p>I am transferring out of my current college and enrolling in another one. I want to go to a great business school, and it looks like it is going to be between Emory and Northeastern.</p>
<p>I want to go to Emory so badly, but I have to apply to get into their business school after sophomore year...so there is NO GUARANTEE that I will be able to study finance there. 500 students are admitted into the business school out of the 5000 students that attend Emory. Obviously, not students are business majors, but their acceptance rate is about 33%.</p>
<p>Emory is my top college...and the business school is very prestigious! But by going there, I will be putting my whole education on the line. I am 100% certain that I want to major in either finance or management.</p>
<p>What should I do? Please help me!! Should I take the risk and go to Emory or should I go to Northeastern? My GPA at Bryant (the school I was currently enrolled in) was a 3.5 first semester and 3.8 second semester.</p>
<p>I thought Emory allows people to transfer into their business school as long as you have completed the required transfer prereqs? Did you just apply to Emory as undecided or applied to their general college instead of the business school?</p>
<p>Have you already been accepted to Goizueta?
Transferring in is almost impossible. They accepted less than 1% of the entering class from external transfer. So less than 5 people.</p>
<p>I applied to Emory as a finance major…but I will be transferring in as a sophomore. So, I would have to apply to Goizueta during my sophomore year at Emory. Emory told me they wanted to see my final grades before they make a decision on me, and seeing that my transcript is 3 A’s and 2 A-'s, I feel I may have a strong chance to get accepted into EMORY…not Goizueta.</p>
<p>Hmm well I suppose what I might do in your case is do your year at Emory and bust your ass to get into Goizueta. When you apply though during soph year, maybe apply to NEU as well? So if Goizueta doesn’t let you in you’ll have other options. NEU is not a terribly difficult school to get into with a high gpa and coming from somewhere like Emory.</p>
<p>If you know you want to work in Boston though I’d just go to NEU now.</p>
