UMass Amherst Transfer Fall '12

<p>Hi, I was wondering if anyone has successfully transferred to Umass and could tell me their stats. I have 27 credit hours finished with a 3.56 GPA from a Mass community college. I was wondering if this stands a good chance of acceptance? I am getting nervous because I would really like to go in the fall, thank you for any responses</p>

<p>I was accepted as a transfer from a Mass community college. I only had 12 credits with 7 pending credits. My gap was a 4.0. I think you should be good as long as you get your application in soon enough.</p>

<p>My son has a very similar situation to you @tallman100 (his GPA is 3.65 at Mass Bay). Anybody have a clue when UMass Amherst will notify transfers? He has heard from the four other colleges he applied to including UMass Lowell.</p>

<p>Alaroc: Did you apply as a transfer to Fall 12? And if so when did you hear? </p>

<p>jbd: I am at MassBay too belive it or not. It is a good school to transfer from</p>

<p>So far I have heard a lot of transfers hear back towards the end of April, and in May! I guess there are a lot of Freshman applicants who haven’t heard back yet either so that could be a reason for the wait as well?? but I applied to transfer in the beginning on February and am still waiting to hear back. good luck!!</p>
