Transferring from a Top 20 LAC during Junior Year? Yay or Nay?

<p>Hey afk7867. What might be my chances at these school and others with a ~3.0 and a high SAT (will probably retake, but currently it’s a 2150). Anyone?</p>

<p>Its extremely rare for a top 30 universities to accept a third year mid term transfer. Even they did, you will lose out a lot of credits. Take a gap year is no guarantee to be accepted either, especially with your GPA(even if they only consider the 3.55 in you sophomore year).</p>

<p>As others have suggested, its better do well from now on and get a higher average GPA and try at the Graduate School level. </p>
