Transfer Chances with Disciplinary Suspension

<p>Out of high school, I attended a Top 5 school. I had been class valedictorian, over 4.0 GPA, 2200 SATs, 3 800s and a 700 on SAT IIs, and countless extracurriculars. During the spring semester of my freshman year, I was suspended for a year for being arrested for buying alcohol with a fake ID. I was maintaining a GPA over 3.0 while I was there. </p>

<p>After being suspended, I took classes during the summer at another Ivy league school and achieved a 4.0 while I was there. Now I'm currently studying at an international university and will most likely be able to maintain a 4.0 while I am here. </p>

<p>What I want to know is what are my chances for spring transfer (I hated it at the school, and can't see myself going back) at schools like Boston College, Boston University, or Northeastern University. (I'm basically trying to transfer to a school in Boston) How badly does the suspension hurt me, and how would I be able to accentuate what I've learned from my mistakes and show that I've changed. In addition, I've also done alcohol counseling and changed my entire view on drinking and the law. </p>

<p>Any comments or input would be much appreciated. </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I realize that your thread has been sitting out there all Fall without any replies.
I’d like to know how you made out with transfer applications.
Were you actually on suspension from your Freshman College while applying, or had this been expunged?</p>
