<p>so darn it, I have no choice other than to attend my safety school (suny stonybrook) as of now. I had a few question about transferring.</p>

<ol>
<li><p>will it be extremely difficult transferring from a suny to columbia?</p></li>
<li><p>should i retake the SAT? i currently have a 2110 (630 cr, 750 m, and 730 wr) I already have taken the SAT 3 times.</p></li>
<li><p>Which program is generally harder to transfer into SEAS or CC? I will be applying for SEAS.</p></li>
<li><p>Is it a plus factor if you have very strong science and math grades and youre applying to SEAS?</p></li>
<li><p>Can you take biological courses such as biology, organic chemistry, etc. while you are enrolled in SEAS?</p></li>
<li><p>How much will my high school record affect my chances? I wasnt involved much in hs, but I will be joining tons of activities at stonybrook.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>responses will be much appreciated. thanks in advance</p>

<p>edit: Oh and I forgot, I was admitted into stony's university scholars program, which only the top students get, is this is a plus factor?</p>

<p>Were you rejected this year? Were you rejected from SEAS or CC? </p>

<p>I don’t think you need to retake your SAT, however make sure your GPA in college is high. It’s hard to transfer .</p>

<p>i got rejected from CC this year.</p>

<p>and really?, I thought a 2250+ puts you in a good position along with a strong gpa.</p>

<p>^ Well, your already in college and I’m pretty sure that the most important thing for transfers is their College GPA.</p>

<p>Why would apply to SEAS if you intially wanted to attend CC?</p>

5

<p>i;d like advice too. i’d be transferring from either cornell or georgetown. what is usually the transfer acceptance rate? im curious</p>

6

<p>BUMP… would like more opinions on this</p>

<p>Kid, first of all you seem really new to this thing called “college admissions”. (hence the acceptance to suny)</p>

<p>It is extremely difficult to transfer from suny to Columbia, as difficult as it is to see god from circle nine.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>If you are applying SEAS, what’s the use of asking which is harder. And they are of about equal hardness, they’re just different.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Um, maybe… Why is SEAS called the Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Sciences again?</p>

<p>how am I “really new to college admissions”?.. and plz if you have nothing positive to say, keep your mouth shut, I will appreciate it. I just asked a few questions for gods sake.</p>
