Transferring into Boston University/Northeastern University?

Transfer Students
1

<p>I went to a private school, Drew University, in Madison, NJ for my first semester of college. I received a 2.5 GPA (terrible, I know, but bio absolutely killed me). I've currently transferred to Kansas State University and will only be here for the spring semester. I plan to bring my GPA up immensely whilst here. After I complete the spring semester, I will have about 29 credits. I did not take neither my SATs nor my ACTS, and I didn't finish high school so I don't have much to prove. </p>

<p>In order to successfully transfer into the two schools listed above (also: which would you rather go to/why?), what do you think my GPA should be? I know right now if I were to apply and get in, it would be a miracle, which is why I'm waiting another semester in the hopes I bring up my GPA and increase the likelihood of being accepted.</p>

<p>I appreciate any and all help... Thank you.</p>

<p>I would recommend you post these questions on each of these two school’s pages here on CC under “colleges”. You should get good feedback from people who are very familiar with the schools.</p>
