Do you have any ECs? Your GPA looks good, but try to keep it a 3.8+. I’m looking to transfer there in the fall of 2019. Not a student there, but I visited last year. Throughout your time as a student you’ll have tons of advisors. I could be wrong, but I think by the time you leave you will have had about 8 or 9. I was there during a break, so the campus was dead, but I’ve heard nothing but good things. The students I have spoken to love it and, of course, the academics are to notch. Just make sure you visit before going there (if you’re admitted). Some people don’t like St. Louis, but I found it welcoming.
