Transfer help from FIU to FSU

<p>Hello, I am graduating from highschool this year with college credited hours due to my passed AP exams
According to the table on the site I get the following amount of credit for my scores: </p>

<p>Ap English Lit-6
Ap English Lan-6
Ap American History-3
Ap World History-3
Ap Spanish-7
Ap Government + Politics-3
Ap Micro-3
Ap Art History-3</p>

<p>That's a total of 34 credits and I will be taking a college course at a community college this summer, probably either a math class or a biology class, and I will at least gain another 3 credits so I will be entering FIU with 37 college credits which is considered entering as a "sophomore" now my question is if I take 15 credits per semester and there are two semesters, meaning I will hopefully gain an additional 30 credits, this all adds up to be a little over 60 credits hours, meaning I can ask for my A.A, does that mean I can apply to FSU as an AA transfer?
Have you heard of this happening before?
I plan to major in English/Literature so I know I have to meet all the pre-requisites for this major, but is it possible to meet them all within one year of a university? </p>

<p>Please, please help. </p>

<p>I don't want to spend two years at FIU.</p>

<p>“Does that mean I can apply to FSU as an AA transfer?”</p>

<p>yes. Plenty of people do that. My cousin is also planning to go to USF for a year and then transfer to FSU.</p>

<p>As long as you have over a 3.0 and over 60 credits, it isnt that difficult to transfer. Even with pre reqs and milestones, etc. FSU is very helpful and will work with what you have - they won’t outright reject if you don’t have every little thing lined up perfectly.</p>

<p>Best advice I can give is to apply very early. Apply to FSU for Summer or Fall 2011 about 2 weeks into fall semester (or as early as the application opens up). The application will ask you how many credits you WILL HAVE by the time you start FSU - meaning your answer would be over 60.</p>

<p>If for some reason you get rejected, apply for the next semester in line. One payment of $30 application fee is good for 2 years (can apply as many times during that 2 years)</p>

<ul>
<li><p>Also, A.A.'s give you priority over transfers without them.</p></li>
<li><p>email any questions you have to the admissions staff; they take about 1.5 days to get back to you, and are very god with answering your entire question. If you call it’s usually a 4-5 minute wait on hold, and then you get connected.</p></li>
<li><p>Make sure to send ALL your AP scores to FSU. If they don’t have them by the time you apply, then it will slow the decision down by a couple of weeks.</p></li>
</ul>

<p>Okay so hopefully it’ll all work out. Although I’m not sure what you mean by applying two weeks into fall semester…like two weeks once I start school at FIU?</p>

<p>^^^ Yes, apply the day the application opens up for the term you hope to transfer to.</p>

<p>It depends on the term you hope to transfer. The summer application opens during Fall semester if I recall correctly. Maybe not the 1st couple weeks, but it should open in early November.</p>

<p>You’ll be able to transfer to FSU as a junior in Summer 2011 of Fall 2011. - The day the application opens, for the term you want, apply. (Doing the summer application would be what all the admissions officers would suggest)</p>

<p>Example: If you wish to transfer to FSU for Summer 2011 (a bit easier to do than Fall) - You should be able to apply for Summer sometime in your first semester at FIU (probably a couple months in, not weeks). Your application will ask for how many credits you will have upon your arrival at FSU (you will have about 62 WHEN you get here, though you will only have about 50 when you apply), so you would put 60something credits on your application.</p>

<p>They will start the review process at that point. </p>

<p>Just apply as early as you can, make sure to put the # of credits that you will have by the time you arrive at FSU on your application (not the # you have when you’re filling out your application), and keep your grades above 3.0 at FIU. - Do that and you’ll likely get in.</p>
