UK 1st year - Transfer from Top college possible??

<p>Hey all,</p>

<p>I am currently taking Exams but if they go well I will be at a Top 10 UK College in September.</p>

<p>Does anyone have any experience of Transfers from the UK to Top Ivy Leagues, to read Computer Science? I understand I would have to take some SAT's but do not understand if my credit would be transfered over?</p>

<p>Any help or any advice whatsoever would be appreciated.</p>

<p>If you know of anyone doing this that would be great too?</p>

<p>It should be possible but you would be better off re-applying as a first-year student in my opinion.</p>

<p>Ah I see anymore advice is welcome.</p>

<p>I was educated in the US, spent one year at a top-3 university in the UK and found transferring difficult, but possible (I ended up transferring to a lower-tier school in the US and then to Penn, but maybe your grades are better than mine).</p>

<p>I in terms of GPA conversion I am on all A/A<em>s (A is 80% and A</em> is 90%) and assuming I get my grades, then my GPA for my Academic Career would probably around 3.8 I guess.</p>

<p>Maybe it’s doable; I’m not the best judge. I’ve heard of at least one student who transferred from the UK (Univ. of St Andrews) directly to Penn; no doubt, there are more.</p>
