<p>So here's my situation. Its my first year at a Texan community college and my sole goal for the whole year has been to transfer to UT Austin.
My Stats at community college:
GPA: 4.0
ECs: A lot (My extended resume for applying was 3.5 pgs long - this included high school stuff too, because it was only my first year in college)
Letter of Rec: 1
2 Essays: fairly well written</p>
<p>My ultimate goal is to get into McComb's School of Business, however I wasn't able to complete the Calculus requirement this year at cc, therefore my plan was to transfer into Liberal Arts (COLA) for Fall 2014 and then internally transfer into McComb's for Fall 2015.</p>
<p>I thought I had a pretty solid plan, EXCEPT: I JUST REALIZED THAT ONE OF MY COURSES FOR MY 30 REQUIRED CREDITS TO TRANSFER, IS NOT TRANSFERABLE... Leaving me with only 27 transferable credits. This really really sucks. And now it's too late to take any more courses to have it show up on my updated transcript due in a few weeks (June 1st 2014). Therefore, I already know I won't get in for Fall 2014, not even into COLA.</p>
<p>SO I was wondering is it better to transfer into UT for Spring 2015? or Fall 2015? I really really dislike being at community college, I'm only here because I recently moved to Texas and I wanted to stay close to home/family my first year, but that year is coming to a close and my goal has always been to go to UT the whole time. BUT THE CATCH IS: If I transfer into COLA for Spring 2015, I'll have to complete 24 in-residence hours at UT, so those won't be completed for 2 semesters, until Fall 2015, right? Then you'd think I could transfer into McCombs for Spring 2016 EXCEPT McCombs only accepts Fall transfers. So I wouldn't get into McCombs till Fall 2016.
That's a very long time away.... </p>
<p>Clearly I'm in a pickle lol, I just don't know what to do. I hear transferring in Spring is tougher and not as nice as Fall, because Fall is more welcoming and more of a happening time. So I need your help! Should I stay at community college for a whole other year and transfer Fall 2015 (despite I hate being at cc) OR should I transfer in for Spring 2015 because I really want to be at UT, despite what I hear about Spring transferring?
ANY SUGGESTION OR COUNTER INFORMATION IS WELCOME! I really need all that I can get. :s
Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this and providing help you guys! </p>
