<p>Hi. I am currently attending in University of California Irvine (UCI).</p>
<p>I am freshmen this year and i had a bad start. I got 2.6 gpa in my first 2 quarters and this last quarter i am plannning to get 3.7-4.0 gpa. I do want to transfer to a prestigious school. Any recommendations? I played around too much and did not take seriously my first two quarters but now i want to tweek my life a bit and be a better person :)<br>
Any sports? business fraternities, or internship will help? anything.. give me back with some helpful criticisms please.. thank you</p>

<p>Read the sticky thread "Transfer Admissions 101" on the Transfer forum. You will see there that one of the most important transfer factors is your college GPA, so that's your first priority, particularly with your bad start first 2 quarters. Before you worry about ECs, you need to get your grades up, fun stuff like sports and fraternities are not going to replace subpar school work.</p>
<p>well thank you... i am new to this forum and i did not know where to go.. i just posted this thread up, because me wanting trasfer to better university just hit me...</p>
<p>any other recommendations? I will check out "Transfer Admissions 101"</p>
