Transfer Stats

<p>Hi, i was just wondering what type of stats those kids who are admitted as transfer students usually have. I am currently a senior in high school but I am not satisfied with the school I am going to be attending next fall. I have a 1400 SAT and 3.94 GPA on a 4.0 scale, with some solid extracurriculars. I would like to apply as a transfer next year, in order to enroll as a sophmore. What can I do next year, besides get a 4.0 first semester in order to better my chances. Will I have any shot?</p>

<p>anybody have any information? it would be greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>please, anybody?</p>

<p>Transfer stats vary year to year...your SAT is a little low so you will need to be pretty high on the GPA side - 3.7ish, depending on where you are coming from of course.</p>

<p>i think his SATs are fine, I mean, I got into a ton of schools with a mid 14.</p>

<p>thank you very much guys, any other opinions?</p>

<p>where are you attending...?</p>

<p>I am going to be attending the Honors College (Commonwealth College) at UMASS Amherst. I have been accepted to Boston College, College of William and Mary, and University of Notre Dame but can't attend due to money issues.</p>

<p>Why do you think that Duke would be any better as far as money is concerned?</p>

<p>there are some circumstances that pertain to this year in particular that i don't really want to get into. By the way, how is the financial aid for transfer students, would i still have a shot at a good package since money will still be a concern? And back to the original question, how are my chances looking and what else can i do? thank you</p>
