<p>Hi, I just began my junior year at UC Berkeley, and I want to transfer for many reasons - most of them have to do with not liking the general campus vibe and culture, and the fact that I'm from the east coast and don't like being so far away. In general...I really have grown to hate it here, which is why it's taken me so long to realize I want to transfer..I hope it's not too late.</p>
<p>Is it even an option to get through this semester and then go to Cornell for 3 more?
I'm a Electrical engineering and computer science (ECCS, focus on comp sci) major, and as you may or may not know, Berkeley engineering is brutal gpa wise - I have a 2.9, which I can probably get above 3.0 by the end of the semester. Will Cornell or other schools take into account the difficult of Uc Berkeley's programs in looking at my gpa?</p>
<p>In high school I had a 4.35 gpa, 2100 sat, don't remember what other stats are important, but I'd say my Berkeley stats obviously don't seem to measure up despite my best efforts. I also have some great internship experience, I don't know if that helps transfers.</p>
<p>Do I have a shot at Cornell or any other Ivies? Suggestions for other UC Berkeley - tier schools that might take me for 3 more semesters? (or 4?) Thanks!</p>
