Wharton Transfer (USC Marshall vs. Michigan)

<p>I applied EA to Michigan and got accepted and recently got an acceptance from the University of Southern California. The thing is, I'm having an extremely difficult time deciding between the two. I know Michigan has one of the BEST undergraduate business schools in the nation, but the weather is a bit of a downer. USC also has an amazing business school but not as nationally recognized as Ross (in my opinion), but it's in LA and the weather is amazing in California. Wharton has been a childhood dream of mine, and with my high school GPA I didn't think it would be possible for me to get in, so I decided not to apply this year. So I guess my main question is: which school would be better to try to transfer into Wharton after freshman year, USC or Michigan?</p>

<p>Did you sign up for preferred admittance to the Ross BBA program? Regardless, I would aim for Ross, if you do well there you’d have a shot, but either way, transferring to Wharton will be extremely hard. I would also go with Ross because if you don’t get into Wharton, Ross is a much better backup than Marshall depending on where you want to work and what you want to do.</p>
