Transfer Chanes: NYU, Columbia, UCBerkely, UMich, Penn

<p>And I understand that perfectly. I didn't go on here to here whatever makes me happy. Simply what my chances at those specific schools is. I'm still going to apply, and see what happens.</p>

<p>:) That's basically what I am doing as well! :) I am applying to some schools that are just impossible...</p>

<p>But I do have 2 back ups and 2 matches..but the 1 or 2 are just...far reach</p>

<p>No chance, no offense. Bring your grades up and get some EC's, you've got another two semesters.</p>

<p>what do you suggest for some good EC's?</p>

<p>I would get involved in a school club. I don't think you can go wrong with a leadership position in student government. :D</p>

<p>Establish a club on your campus...if you want to get into IB or IM areas, i suggest you establish a Finance Club, Investment Club, etc...if not already founded yet...</p>

<p>Where are you interning? is it prestigious?</p>

<p>I'm interning at a top 10 hospital so I'd say so :)</p>

<p>what does that have to do with finance? or business in general? are you merely volunteering at a hospital?</p>

<p>(assuming you're applying to NYU Stern)</p>

<p>No, as stated previously I'm working in the executive administration department at the hospital. I'll be working on an actual team that is focusing on improving certain aspects of the OR. I asked for an internship and he gave me a "real world" internship where I'll actually be working.</p>

<p>ummm UMich LS&A you have a chance at. I know their average is a 3.4-3.5 for transfer students. If you're going for a fashion type area, I don't think AA is really that though. It's much more laid back than NYC, and while it's the ideal college town, it won't give you the big city feel.</p>

<p>UMich (especially L,S&A) wants to see good writing skills from its transfer applicants...</p>

<p>I am sure you will get in as long as your essay isn't filled with grammatical errors, spelling errors, and nonsenses as I've seen from some who are applying to UMich.</p>

<p><em>raises hand</em> mine was plagued with mistakes</p>

<p>^ forgot to send a PM to say thanks, I fixed all the corrections you said I should, and totally revamped others.</p>

<p>BTW, I just made my schedule even tougher this semester, will it help?
Macroeconomics Honors (3 credits)
Calculus I (4 credits)
Elementary Russian 2 (5 credits)
Seminar in Composition (Literary) (3 credits)
Nuclear Age, Nuclear War (3 credits)</p>

<p>that's quite the average...i have 19 credits with internship</p>

<p>Hmm, So I assume you're also trying to transfer to NYU? Where are you trying to transfer from?</p>
