TIPS on internal transfer from CAS to Wharton

<p>i read the requirements for the internal transfer and i know it's very difficult. any tips are appreciated.</p>

<p>*also, is it easier to pursue a dual degree from CAS + Wharton than applying for an internal transfer to Wharton?</p>

<p>better but on gloves and a helmet because you are about to get verbally assaulted....</p>

<p>the process for dual degree and internal transfer is exactly the same.</p>

<p>the only tip is to do well, basically - gpa is the only criterion for acceptance.</p>

<p>also, take as many wharton classes as you can, they look more favorably on transfer that way.</p>

<p>Take the easiest load you can outside of your required Econ 001, 002, and Math 104. It's all about your GPA.</p>

<p>I have friends who are seriously kicking themselves in the head for not purposely making life easier first semester because now they need to compensate with a high second semester GPA.</p>

<p>If you have 5 AP scores for maco/micro econ and for calc BC, is it still mendatory to take econ 001 002 and math 104?</p>

<p>nope, for math you get credit for 104 and take 114; for econ you get a waiver to satisfy prerequisites (you can take higher econ classes immediately), but no credit for econ 001/002</p>

<p>so you mean you HAVE to take both classes? (two econs and math) even if you have those AP credits? I think thats what you mean but Im just kindda confused on the part "for math you get credit for 104 and take 114". That saying you can reject to take an advanced level math course? help me out here !</p>

<p>If you have AP credit, then you don't need to take those classes again. You just need to make sure you have Collegeboard officially send the scores to the school.</p>

<p>no, you don't have to take anything further with those credits, just that they give you those benefits.</p>

<p>this is sickening</p>

<p>If you have applied to Penn CAS to get into Wharton, you have applied for the wrong reason and I suggest you choose another school.</p>
