Transfer Fall 2013

<p>Anyone on here looking to transfer in '13?</p>

<p>yeah i am also</p>

<p>I wonder where everyone is.</p>

<p>I am applying for transfer Fall 2013</p>

<p>Me too! What are your stats?</p>

<p>D is thinking of transferring for Fall 2013. She’s at Emory now.</p>

<p>yess i am…</p>

<p>^^ I’ve been looking into applying to Emory too!</p>

<p>I am looking to transfer too!</p>

<p>Me too! Coming from Georgia State</p>

<p>Got in last year with an absurdly low GPA, but couldn’t afford it full-ticket. Now I’m reapplying from UIUC for fall '13 with the knowledge that if I get in, I’ve got someone paying for it. Booooom</p>

<p>You got in with a low GPA? That just gave me a little bit of hope haha.</p>

<p>Hey guys, I’m considering doing this (current Freshman) but I don’t think my first semester grades, 2 A’s, a B+, an A in a 1 credit course, and a W (in an acting course as an economics major, and it was over disagreements with the professor and a hatred of the class, I was not failing) are good enough to make the cut. It comes out to a 3.78, but I’m worried about the W. My high school record is respectable but not Vandy quality.</p>

<p>Basically, what I’m asking is, would anyone recommend waiting until the second semester is over (April 1) to have my college transcript sent out (after the priority deadline). I just don’t want to have been rejected by the time I’m done with this semester, which I hope to get straight A’s in.</p>

<p>eric2dea,
I would send in whatever transcript you think is best, a 3.78 really isn’t that bad, but if you are confident that you will get a 4.0 next semester then go for it. Being a transfer student, you will have a much higher rate of acceptance than any other applicant group.</p>

<p>A 3.78 is more than fine.</p>

<p>My GPA is only 3.64. I am at Brandeis University now. I don’t know if it will hinders my chance. I’ve seen so many stellar GPAs on CC!</p>

<p>There is no point in worrying about it. Once your transfer app is in, relax and wait. Worry changes nothing, but makes you feel awful.</p>

<p>I noticed they aren’t need blind for transfer apps. Does anyone know how big of a deal a large amount of financial need would be to admissions? Also is it possible to notify them of current outside scholarships. I currently have a $5000 scholarship and another potential scholarship by next year.</p>

<p>We got really good financial aid from Vandy (D was a transfer) - I wasn’t aware that they aren’t need-blind for transfers.</p>

<p>since when are they not need blind for transfers?</p>
