<p>-Does it matter if one transfers after 3 semesters ...2 semesters...or even 4?</p>
<p>-Do high school grades matter as much if one applies for a junior transfer or after 3 semesters?</p>
<p>-Also is there an advantage applying for a fall transfer rather than a spring transfer?</p>
<p>It doesn’t matter how long you take to transfer… in college you can take your time and pace.</p>
<p>High School grades don’t matter when you transfer to a university after 3 semesters.</p>
<p>And as for the last question…I don’t have an answer.</p>
<p>Generally, fall transfers are more encouraged because there is more openings in terms of course offerings. Also, there is more going on in the beginning with all the orientation programs and introduction programs for the school. I could be wrong but from what I’ve heard, the fall transfer rate has always been higher than spring.</p>
<p>thanks for the help! …appreciate!</p>
<p>Does anyone else know about the fall vs. spring advantage question?</p>
<p>I believe that the college board website posts the transfer numbers for fall and spring on its website. </p>
<p>One downside to spring admissions is that not all schools offer it.</p>
<p>In the spring there are fewer courses that start a sequence. So, unless you completed all the pre-requisites, you may not get the classes you need, and may be forced to register for classes you don’t need. This matters less if you are a junior transfer and have already moved to the upper-level coursework.</p>
