Transfer Thread

<p>Yup, you’re right actually. I guess you can’t transfer to McIntire then.</p>

<p>I’m going to guess to transfer to UVA after your first year, you had to be a stellar student in HS (waitlist or borderline rejection type grades)? And stellar test scores? I didn’t do so hot these past four years and I want to make up for it some how but I’m not sure if I’d be able to do it in a year.</p>

<p>Dean Papovich will scare you during transfer orientation and tell you that you MUST finish your coursework in 8 semesters…simply NOT true, I have quite a few friends who are still not done (they would have graduated last year), I have one transfer friend who transferred in 3 years ago and he’s still only a third year, f.y.i.</p>

<p>That is great information to know Wahoomb. They seemed to be pretty strict about this rule on the website but I hope you’re right. I figure if the admissions office doesn’t believe a student can complete the required coursework in this time then they probably won’t admit the student anyways. If this rule does stand though, I am a bit worried about getting into all of my required classes and still have enough time for summer internships. </p>

<p>For those of you who do not check the Transfermer blog on the UVA website, one of the posters on the blog created a facebook group for UVA transfers. If you are interested in joining the link is [UVA</a> Transfers | Facebook](<a href=“Facebook”>Facebook) .</p>
