Where would you go?

<p>I am currently a sophmore at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. I am a Statistics major with ~3.3, and I am very involved on campus and have had many leadership roles. Despite this, I feel as I would really like to study Business - more specific - MIS, Management, or Finance. Another reason for considering the transfer is that I would really like to go out of state. </p>

<p>With this being said where do you think I should go, of the following, or if you have another idea:</p>

<p>University of Colorado - Boulder
University of Washington
Vanderbilt
Dayton</p>

<p>If you have any other options that would be suitable to my profile I would appreciate it.</p>

<p>i don’t think your gpa is competitive enough for vandy or uwash, but possibly for the other 2 (i’m not familiar with them, sorry). maybe northeastern? honestly, uiuc is a great school</p>

<p>Thanks for the feedback. Do you feel I would be competitive for Northeastern? Do you have any knowledge of what the middle 50% Transfer GPA may be for Vandy or UWash? Would I be at a disadvantage if I am not transferring from one Business School to another? I have an excellent high school resume, but since I have taken >30 college hours do they even look at that? Thanks for all your help.</p>

<p>i had a 3.3 gpa when i transferred to northeastern but they are getting more competitive each year and they do have a holistic approach. You still have a decent shot.</p>

<p>Vandy and UWash are a little reach for you</p>

<p>Do you mind me asking what you studied at Northeastern? Did you transfer from another University or CC? Can you elaborate on why you decided on Northeastern?</p>

<p>What is a competitive GPA for Vandy and UWash? 3.5 or even higher?</p>

<p>^ higher, i’d say. though vandy’s acceptance rate is also high. i’d say with a 3.5 it’s worth a shot, but by no means great chances.</p>

<p>I was originally a bio major at another university in Boston but i transferred in as an economics major. I decided Northeastern awhile ago but was not able to get in when i was in high school. I had considered other schools around Boston and in California but northeastern gave me the best financial package.</p>
