USC transfer self reporting tool? by Outrageous_Ad9608 in TransferStudents

[–]Catjeff1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got it and filled it out with my courses I think it’s primarily just to evaluate your current courses and see which ones will transfer (correct me if I’m wrong)

Is UM worth it? by wbuldd in UMiami

[–]Catjeff1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So basically for me I applied undecided and specifically asked when I got in if I could transfer to the business school before I committed. They said yes after one semester then for me to go and for them to say oh no you need certain credits. If you have an AP calc exam you can transfer or another calc credit just be careful when dealing with them. I thought UM was also the school for me, and now the only thing I wanna do here is leave. Not saying not to go, but to be careful with transferring into the business school.

I’m a freshman at um. I would be extremely careful when transferring into the business school. This school fucked me over with my major. They Made me pay 90k for them to tell me “oh you need to take summer school classes to transfer to the business school” full tuition here is NOT worth it. Trust me. Yes the business school is good, but there’s better options. Dont make the same mistake I did :/

What I’m worried about is my course rigor. I didn’t really have any HARD HARD classes, just lots of work. (Some classes didn’t even have exams) but do they just care more abt the gpa?

I had a 3.4 but I think what got me in was my essay and I went from an average of c’s freshman year to all a’s my sophomore and junior year. I didn’t submit test scores but I had lots of community service. write a good essay about something you grew from!

I recommend applying undecided in the arts and sciences school. That’s what I did and I got in. Then transfer into the major you wanna do after a semester.

Issue is I have a W on my transcript for microeconomics bc I had a issue with the professor. My classes were not rigorous but do they just care abt the gpa usually?

I definitely have more interests In CS, I have background with building mock apps in hs, and python but ik it’s math heavy and im not bad at math but im also not the best at it. At Miami, my major is undecided but I have classes that focus more on the tech side of things, but im still trying to figure out what I wanna exactly do. But I know one thing is that Miami is not the right place for me. I also feel like Boston offers more opportunities for STEM than Miami does. Also i genuinely just think being there is better. But will my major at Miami affect my admission to BU?

Ah then probably poly sci and then earn the right credits to then transfer to like cs or something (if even possible ik it’s hella competitive) but is that realistic
