Transfer Question

<p>Hi everyone,</p>

<p>I am a dual Canadian/US citizen and I just completed my freshman year at the University of Washington. I want to transfer to UBC because it is closer to home and because I grew up and have many friends in Vancouver.</p>

<p>My GPA right now is around a 3.25 and I would prefer to transfer into the faculty of science. I realize that the deadline for this coming year has past, so I would be applying to enter for my 3rd year of college.</p>

<p>I have a couple of questions:

  • With my GPA would I have a chance of getting in? (I have an upward trend and I am hoping to improve it more in my 2nd year).
  • At UW I was thinking of majoring in neurobiology. How does choosing a major work at UBC? I am a little confused about the “faculty” system that UBC uses.
  • Would I be hurting my chances of entering a US medical school by making this transfer? (Keep in mind I am a dual US/Canadian citizen)</p>

<p>Thank You</p>
