Too many credit hours?

Transfer Students

<p>I know that most colleges will only allow you to transfer so many credits (60 or something equivalent, usually, isn't it?), but can you take too many? I'll have about 75-80 by the time I go to another school, because my plan was to finish out my sophomore year, take a year off, and apply during that year (I will need the spring semester grades, thart's why). </p>

<p>I am interested in NYU (Gallatin), Cornell, U Chicago, Penn, Georgetown, maybe Barnard. I didn't see anything about this on their websites. </p>

<p>I'll pretty much be a junior when I apply. I don't mind taking credits over again, but will other schools care? (I don't go to community college.)</p>

<p>The best thing to do is just call up your universities and ask.</p>

<p>Off the top of my head I know that UPenn has a policy where you have to spend at least 2 years there to get a degree from them...I would imagine most schools have a similar policy so it might not be about how many credits you transfer in, but how many credits you have to take once you actually get there.</p>
