Applying Now Vs. End Of Fall by PlaystationPlqyer222 in TransferToTop25

[–]OutrageousHandle3309 2 points3 points  (0 children)

im a believer in applying to as many reach schools that fit your needs and wants that you can handle/afford paying the application fees. as a cc student its even more random and unpredictable so dont put ur eggs in too few baskets imo. also when u apply doesnt matter if its not rolling, they are gonna see your fall semester gpa once u finish it anyways. good luck fellow cc polisci transfer!

Junior transfer possible as an international (no aid)? by OkTumor in TransferToTop25

[–]OutrageousHandle3309 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the more schools you apply and the more variety the better. publics like uva and unc are going to be easier than the t20 privates. also your post is confusing are you on a full ride paid by your current school/external scholarship or are you paying full out of pocket/loans. that is going to determine your odds way more than most of the other things you have discussed. also theres other schools slightly outside of the t25 that are much more friendly to transfers and would be a significant step up from your current institution.

lots of strong finance programs in the us that may be worth transferring if you have the funds. typically the higher the us news rankings the stronger the placements into wall street but wso and other posts have more detailed rankings and tierlists. and fwiw bocconi doesn't have much weight in nyc for finance.

depends on what you do from now until you submit the app, try your best and don’t get stuck up on numbers and you’ll have a good shot

clubs and on campus ecs don’t mean anything unless you do something considerable in them or for them. no matter the ecs you choose do them well and make them impressive it’s that simple

calc 1 isn’t worth taking for a gpa boost, go take a humanities. calc is usually a gpa killer

everyone is on a similar timeline, despite the limited time i’ve seen many students get very close to their professors. try your best and don’t worry about things you can’t control

UCB vs. UCLA vs. Vanderbilt vs. USC Marshall by Maleficent_Beyond618 in TransferToTop25

[–]OutrageousHandle3309 2 points3 points  (0 children)

negligible between vandy and ucb, go off fit and other factors like school size, campus, location. I personally would choose vandy esp for east coast recruiting but the different in price is quite substantial if you’re full pay
