<p>I want to know what I need to do to transfer into these colleges Junior year.? Do they give good aid to transfers? I'll probably still have an EFC of zero when I apply. Is it easier to put Economics on my Application and then apply to get into the school of engineering when I'm there?</p>
<p>I have a 3.02 GPA at Uconn I want a degree in Engineering/Economics I'll go into one if the other requires more work. I'm already looking at spending at 5 years at Uconn regardless due to the dual degree and the fact that I'm garbage at Chem and Gen Eds.</p>
<p>UMiami
UMaryland</p>
<p>These are my reaches and the ones I'm worried about, I assume if I'm good enough for these then I'm good enough for the others on my list.</p>
<p>No advice anybody could give? If you want to know I’m honestly bored of Conn its just where I pictured myself in college.</p>
<p>I’m going to be honest, your 3.02 GPA is going to be really hard to work with…</p>
<p>Well how should I present myself? Should I rely on being an inner city youth who came from bad schooling and transered to an avegare school too late? Or should I just be myself and tell them that Engineering is the main reason my GPA isn’t the best the charts seeing that I had to replace a D in calc and wasted time in Chem only to recieve a bad mark.</p>
<p>Neither of those schools meets full need, and as an OOS student at Maryland, you’ll likely get no aid at all. Very few schools give good aid to transfer students.</p>
<p>UConn is not an “average” school, either.</p>
<p>UConn is a good school. If you don’t get good financial aid at either of your transfer schools, I would say to just stay there.</p>
<p>@polarscribe: I was talking about my HS when I meant average school, I know UCONN’s good but it wasn’t what I was expecting but I have one year more to make the best of it but hopefully I transfer.</p>
