Transfer Selections

Transfer Students

<p>I'm going to send transfer applications in the fall. I had a few questions on my two choices (University of Rochester and Indiana University Bloomington) and was hoping for possible recommendations on colleges I should apply to.</p>

<p>My criteria for in a college is a good language program offering Chinese (plus Korean hopefully), a variety of study abroad options offered, a good political science program, theater (not musical) opportunities offered for non-majors in theater, diversity on campus, and a student body that is large but not overwhelmingly so. Does anyone know of college that match my criteria?</p>

<p>My questions on the University of Rochester (which meets all my criteria perfectly) are how hard is it to transfer into because I know that it is a highly regarded college? Also as a transfer student do they offer financial aid and how much on average do they offer?</p>

<p>My questions on Indiana University Bloomington are: Can a transfer get into their honors college (I have a high gpa)? What are the benefits to their honors college? Does going to a college so big make you feel like just a number? Are there any theater opportunities offered for non-majors? Finally, as an out of state student how are they with financial aid?</p>

<p>Thanks to everyone who helps, I'm really hoping to making the right decision this time.</p>

<p>Are you at a community college right now? (any articulation agreements with other schools? --search your cc website if this applies to you). What state do you live in? What is your GPA and are you transferring as a junior? Are most of your general ed requirements complete? Will you have an Associates completed?</p>

<p>To answer a bit about the financial aid, you can do an EFC estimator on the FAFSA website and get a good idea of what kind of need-based aid you are likely to receive. </p>

<p>One school that comes to mind for you would be Ohio State (good for PS and languages!), but I don’t know all your details yet. :)</p>
