<p>Hello,
I am a freshman looking to transfer for the fall of 2007. I am not unhappy at my current school, per se; I am just looking for different things that are not offered. When I was applying to college last year, I wasn't entirely sure what I wanted, but now I have a better picture. I am looking for a school in a more urban setting, and I am looking to travel a bit further from home-my school is twenty minutes away from my hometown. I am also looking for a bigger school-my current college is only about half the size of my high school in terms of population. Anyhow, I was just wondering what sort of chance I have at the following schools.</p>
