Transfer Students

<p>Im an international freshman in Purdue University--West Lafayette, major in Accounting. Cuz Purdue does not provide Finance major, and the accounting program is not very good, im considering to transfer this fall.</p>

<p>HS GPA: 4.0 (We do not account gpa like this in my country, so I do not have the official HS transcript showing 4.0, but it appears on my college academic history...)</p>

<p>SAT1: 1910 (bad) M780 V570 W560 I dont know if I should retake it, cuz im not sure if I can do better on the verbal part...</p>

<p>SAT2: Math2:770 Physics:740 Chemistry:720</p>

<p>College 1st semester GPA: 3.63 (16 credits)</p>

<p>ECs: nothing significant...chinese tutor, mem. chinese caligraphy club, mem. entrepreneur club, worked for an education institution during summer break in China</p>

<p>Here are a few schools I have considered:
NYU Stern (Hard for me)
Georgetown MSB
University of Michigan - Ann Arbor
Cornell
Indiana U Kelly
Emory (I got in last year but didnot go, regret...)</p>

<p>I do not know the possibility for me to transfer, any advice?</p>

<p>Purdue's accounting program is solid actually. Not top 10, but you can defintely get an accounting job with the big 4, if you choose.</p>

<p>I guess you can say that IU-Kelley's accounting program is stronger, and if you want finance badly enough, I'd say transfer to Kelley. </p>

<p>I'm a Purdue student by the way. (Accounting major). I chose Krannert of Kelley. It really depends on your career goals. Your math score brings you SAT score to a 1350(in classic SAT scores), but you might want to try to pull that up a bit, then you would have a shot. U of I has a great accounting program as well.</p>
