Transfer advice? And question about transfer credits

<p>Has anyone on here transferred to USF from another school? I'm thinking about transferring for fall 2014, but I will be a sophomore so I'm confused about how the application process works. The USF website says you need to write a personal statement if you have less than 24 transferrable credits, and I'm hoping I have more than that but I don't know how to tell. I have 18 credits from AP tests I passed, and I took 13 credits at UF this fall and I'm taking 15 more at UF in the spring.
Should I just go ahead and submit my application without a personal statement? Only 6 of my credits would have to transfer for me to have 24 credits at USF, so I would think there's a really good chance.
I tried calling an admissions officer to ask but I can't ever get ahold of them. Is there someone else I could try calling?</p>
