Transfer from city uni to top unis

<p>Posted this in the transfer subforum before I found this subforum.</p>

<p>Anyway, I'm currently a freshman at the City Univ. of New York at Hunter College, but I'm already pretty unhappy with the school and am looking to transfer out to a much better uni.</p>

<p>I'd obviously like to transfer into an ivy league school, but don't think I'd get accepted after 1 year of college, because my HS grades weren't good at all.</p>

<p>I'm interested in majoring in Marketing with a minor in Econ, or perhaps Design depending on what courses that entails. Aside from the UMich, are there any other suggestions for prestigious schools for a Marketing/Econ Major?</p>

<p>Stats:
HS GPA: ~90/100 (3.5?), not ranked but lower 50% of class considering avg GPA was ~93/100 (one of the top 10 HS's in the country)
3 APs: Calc AB(5), AP Computer Science AB(3), AP Micro(2)
SAT superscored: 2030/2400 - 750M, 620R, 660W
ACT: 30 (7/12 writing)
Extracurrics: Huge weakness, only did some volunteering but was not really into any school clubs</p>

<p>College GPA: Expected 3.7+
Courseload: Macroecon, Am. Gov., Intro english, Womens Gender Studies ( had to register to Hunter late due to financial problems, so I just took whatever courses I could get)
Extracurrics: looking to join student gov, possibly doing an internship also, intramural sports, and some volunteering</p>

<p>I'm thinking I'll only have a shot at an Ivy after 2 years if at all(I'm looking to transfer to Wharton or maybe Columbia, as I probably won't make HYP etc.)</p>

<p>Schools that I'm currently looking at:
UCB, USC(Marshall), UMich, Columbia, Wharton(high high reach), maybe UVA</p>

<p>Should I wait 2 years to try applying to UCB, Wharton, and USC, if at all?</p>

<p>You’ll probably have a better chance after your second year, </p>

<p>apply now anyways, since it sounds like you already dislike the school. who knows, you might get in.</p>

<p>thanks
also, do schools look down on people who apply for a junior transfer at their school if they were rejected as a sophomore transfer?</p>
