<p>How hard is it to transfer to either William and Mary or UVA from a large state school thats considered mediocre?? I'm a Virginia resident so I'm hoping that will help me but my high school GPA was only about a 3.1 which I know is low for those schools. So far, I've done pretty well this Semester and I'm planning on taking 18 credit hours next Semester to bring my GPA up to a 3.6-4.0. I'm also have really strong EC's and essays. Any advice??? I'm hoping to transfer by either Fall '10 or Spring '11.</p>
