<p>I applied Early Action to Case last year and got deferred every step, ultimately not being admitted. I currently attend John Carroll University (a smaller liberal arts school in Cleveland) and am considering trying to reapply as a transfer student. Does anyone have any tips to help me with this process? I have no idea where to even begin. I'm sure all of my credits will transfer, I have B+ up in every class and a lot of AP Credit. </p>
<p>Is it worth transferring? I like John Carroll University a lot but Case still extremely interests me.</p>
<p>Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you so much!</p>
<p>What are you looking to study? Would Case be a better school for that course of study? Case and Carroll are very very different schools, I would suggest a day visit to Case and sitting in on classes to make sure it’s right for you, it has a very unique atmosphere!</p>
<p>I’m studying biology. Though jcu isn’t a science school as much as case it still has a very strong science program. Is case well known for biology? It seems like they focus a lot more on engineering than the life sciences</p>
<p>Though Case is known for engineering, there are many students in the life sciences, specifically biology and biochemistry. If you think that you might like the atmosphere at case (which I do stress is VERY different than JCU), then definitely come over and hang out here to see if you’d like it, and then apply to transfer. It definitely can’t hurt!</p>
<p>Since you are close by why don’t you make an appointment with the admissions office at CWRU and see if the school is a good fit for you. How are your grades at JCU?</p>
<p>My grades are very good, going into my finals with all As. I hear CWRU has a very tough atmosphere academically, how true is that? And I’m already setting up a visit session to sit in on classes and see what merit aid, etc I’d qualify for. Would you guys mind if I emailed you for more advice if I ever need it?</p>
<p>I would say Case has a very tough atmosphere, you will work very hard for your A’s but you will certainly learn! Definitely do the sit-in and meet with fin-aid and the other offices, also set up a meeting with the head of your department!</p>
