Transferring from CS program UTD to NYU Tandon School of Engineering

I’m a Freshman at UTD, CS major. I’m planning on transferring after freshman year. Would my HS transcripts and SAT scores determine my admission outcome? Also does anyone have any tips or suggestion to which other universities I should consider.

As a sophomore level transfer, high school stuff will be significant in transfer admission, since you will have very little college record to evaluate. Junior level transfers have more of a college record, so transfer admission evaluation for junior level transfers will weigh high school stuff less (or not at all at some colleges).
