<p>I'm currently in my first year of an English degree in India, which is completely one-track and consists only of required courses in literature. Where I study, English majors can't take courses in math or science, and take one course per year in another humanities discipline. This is an issue because I now feel the need to change my major; I'd love to get into the second year of UofT's biodiversity and conservation biology, environmental biology, environmental studies, environmental management, professional writing and communications, or journalism program as a transfer student. Which three of these would it be the easiest for me to get into? I was valedictorian in high school with a G.P.A. somewhere between 3.90 and 4.00. I got a 71.5% in the first semester of college; an average score would be in the 50% range and an exceptional one would be at least 75%. I scored a 2300 (Critical Reading:800/Math:720/Writing:800) on the S.A.T. Reasoning Test, and I'm hoping for at least high 600's on subject tests in biology and math level 2. Thanks for your input!</p>
<p>My critical reading score is actually 780. I just noticed the error. xD</p>
<p>I don’t believe U of T looks at SAT’s for internationals aside from U.S students. But as a class valedictorian from India, I think your chances are pretty strong if your English is strong but if your first language is not English you may be required present proof of English proficiency. Keep in mind journalism arts at U of T doesn’t accept transfers from other universities if one more than one year of previous undergrad work at the other university has been completed. Also, they don’t have a communications program, at least not to my knowledge. Good luck.</p>
<p>Hey, thanks again. I actually studied in Saudi Arabia. xD The professional writing and communications program is offered on the Mississauga campus. I’m just confused about which of the programs to apply to. So many options! I’ve heard that the main campus is the best place for international students, so maybe I should just pick a program there?</p>
<p>If you choose a satellite campus always take some courses downtown. it’s a beautiful campus and so take advantage of what the St.George campus has to offer.</p>
