Transfer from Umass Lowell to Umass Amherst

<p>I am currently a sophmore at Umass Lowell, and while its a great school and all ive always wanted to go to umass amherst
I had a 3.04 1st semester and a 2.89 second semester. I know I need to get that gpa up and am not looking to transfer until the end of sophmore year. I also did well on my SATS, but im not sure if they would look at those considering the number of college credits I have accumulated. I am an instate residence and may be able to recieve a letter of reccomendation from a state rep.<br>
I was just wondering what you thought my chances were? and whether or not already being a part of the UMass system would help my chances?</p>
