transfer stats/chances

Transfer Students

Hi I’m currently a freshman at a 4 year private university in Texas looking to transfer to USC and other colleges, I was wondering what my chances were!

Applying for Business Admin for USC
First Semester GPA (13 credits) 3.86 (A’s and A-'s)
Second Semester anticipated GPA (16 credits) 3.8-3.9
High School GPA (3.4 UW) Took a majority of AP classes though
2200 SAT (800 math 730 Writ 670 read) 800 in math SAT subject test and 700 in bio SAT subject test

Lots of HS EC’s including multiple internships and leadership positions in two major clubs in HS
Did an Externship with Deloitte over winter break in College
involved in a few volunteer and religious clubs in college

I feel like I had a strong Writing supplement in my app too

I’m worried that my High School grades will affect my chances, but I’ve turned it around in college and am confident that I’ll get all A’s or A-'s in my second semester

also applying to NYU Stern, UPenn, and Stanford
I would really appreciate feedback on my stats and my chances for the colleges I’m applying to
Thank you!

You have a shot at NYU and USC, but not so much at UPenn or Stanford. The latter two not so much as due to your GPA, but rather admittance is very difficult for any transfer (~1% for Stanford and ~10% for Penn). The fact that you are a freshman will definitely cause colleges to rely on your high school work for admittance as well.

Hope you already applied to USC because their fall deadline was February 1st.
