Please help me, I want change university now im attending first semester. I want to move somewhere with a course Msc data science or data analytics something like that.

Can I move by Winter 26 intake?
How is the process
What are the chances of credit transfer
Is there some uni that have still applications open now so I can try those.

I’m 18 going in to my first year of college but I graduated with my associates degree so that means I only have two years of college and only this year to do a internship. Intership applications open from August to like October I believe but I can’t apply to anything right because I don’t even have a GPA yet. So I don’t know what to do and I don’t know the typical path for a transfer student. This has been in my mind for months. And I feel like I can get a intership at BOFA because I know someone but I don’t know even when I would intern because I don’t have a resume this year and the year of 2028 I won’t be able to do a summer intership because Ill be graduated.

If there’s no solution should I double major so I’ll have more time to do interships?

hello! i am currently heading into my second year at my local community college, and i’m hoping to transfer in the spring. i was wondering if anyone had any insight on how housing works for transfer students, but especially for those transferring in the spring rather than the fall. it seems like finding a roommate heading into your freshman year is super easy, most of the people that i know at four year universities found one through the “class of ___” page for their school or already had someone they knew from high school or otherwise. i’ve been having a hard time finding information on housing for transfer students, but it doesn’t seem like the same pathways of finding a roommate are really open. are you assigned someone randomly? do they try to place you in a single dorm? is there even housing open, or do most find somewhere to live off campus? i would appreciate any information or experience anyone has! i’m just trying to get a feel for how my experience will be different than if i had gone the traditional route.

Hello! I used to study in our local university but decided to dropped out on 1st semester way back 2021. I'm planning to go back to study, but I also want to shoot my shot at my dream school.

I'm planning to study on a private college first to take required units and transfer to UPD. May I ask for your thoughts about this or if you have any experience please help me out T ^ T

Thank you!

I’m an international student going into the second year in a big10 college. Even though my current school has relatively low tuition and living cost for internationals but as my family business kinda went down recently, we are struggling financially. So I’m looking to transfer to another school which I hope to get more merit scholarship and lower the total cost of attending college. I’m majoring in education and I don’t expect my salary to be high after graduation, so I wanna lower the cost as much as possible and hopefully graduate from an okay-college. I don’t hope to be in top schools, just any recognizable big colleges are fine. My GPA currently is 3.9 and have few volunteering experiences.
Any suggestion/advice welcomed.

I’m planning on transferring from a CA junior college to ASU in the spring. My concern is my first few semesters at JC aren’t very impressive and have tanked my GPA. Even after my recent semester and two summer classes that I have just finished, my GPA still sits below the 2.5 out of state threshold.
I’m wondering if after my fall semester, most likely sitting around or above a 2.75, if it’s likely I’m still admitted in time for spring and if finding a place to live will be difficult. I have emailed with an admissions advisor but really haven’t gotten any helpful results.

**How likely am I to get in for exercise science as a freshman spring transfer** from a community college if I have **14 transfer credits from the summer** and I plan on following the some rest of the exercise science transfer pathway (all the strongly recommended would be completed) and another **14 in the fall? Total by the time I transfer: 28**

Extra info: I’m in state, mom+ other members went to vt, I applied for early action (public health) as an incoming freshman this past year, but got waitlisted and they flagged my application because I made a team there but they couldn’t help me get off bc it didn’t count as an official sport, so I never did.

Do we think I need more credits when I apply? Any tips?

Has anyone done this before where they go to a 4 year uni for their first year, then to a CC, then transferred to a 4 year? Like a reverse transfer?

I was planning to transfer from my current 4 year uni to another 4 year uni, but I’m not sure if I’m physically or mentally well enough for this (lots of personal life things happened over the past few months). I’ve been accepted to this new 4 year uni (which initially I was dead set on transferring to for my sophomore year), but I’m mostly concerned that I don’t have the capability to keep up right now with the academics or move away 3 hours from home with the health issues I have.

I’m on the premed/pre-pa path, so the most important thing for me is to protect my grades. Right now, I’m considering going to community college for my 2nd year (because it would be easier for me to stay at home and to protect my gpa), then applying again for my 3rd year when I’m better. But I’m not sure how admission officers would take this.

I’ve got 3 options:

1) If I were to continue my studies at my initial uni, I would have to commute abt an hour from home, waking up at 6 AM to catch my ride (this may take a hit to my health).

2) I simply transfer to the 4 year uni I wanted (away from home, with no one really to look out for me in the case I do encounter a health episode).

3) go to cc, finish up my intro classes and gen-eds. Reapply and hope I can get in a second time.

Idk what to do rn. Any advice is welcome. TIA.

Hey everyone!

I’m an incoming freshman at Pasadena City College, and my goal is to transfer to UCLA in two years as a Biology major. I’m really trying to be intentional with my time at PCC and make the most of these next two years.

So far, I’ve joined EOP&S, the Honors Program/Honor Society, and JAM. I know maintaining a strong GPA is the biggest factor, but I’m wondering what else I can do to make my application stronger and stand out.

I completed most of my general education requirements in high school, so the main GEs I have left are English and math. Because of that, I have a little more flexibility in my schedule and want to use that time wisely.

This fall, I’m taking two honors classes (English and Calculus), General Chemistry, and College Seminar. I’m really trying to build a strong foundation from day one. I’d love to create a roadmap for the next two years, not just academically, but also through leadership, extracurriculars, and opportunities that will help me become a stronger UCLA transfer applicant.

For those who successfully transferred to UCLA (especially Biology, STEM, or pre-med majors), what are some things you wish you had done sooner?

I’m especially interested in:

• Clubs or organizations that are actually worth joining
• Leadership opportunities
• Research opportunities
• Internships
• Volunteering (especially in healthcare or biology)
• Transfer programs or campus resources I should take advantage of
• Ways to build a stronger extracurricular profile
• Scheduling strategies or classes that helped you succeed

I genuinely want to be as involved as possible instead of just going to class and heading home. I really want to challenge myself and use my time wisely at PCC.

Any advice, tips, or even things you wish someone had told you as an incoming freshman would mean a lot. Thank you!

I've attended a college less than twenty minutes away from my house for the past three years and I'm tired of this, Grandpa!

When I graduated from high school I only applied to this one school because I knew it would save the most money and be the least hassle for my family, but alas, now my mental stability is the one paying the price. My dad that I do not get along with is doing his masters here in the same program as me so he knows way too many of my classmates and professors for comfort. I've wanted to transfer elsewhere since my first year, but I've been trying so hard to stick it out. Still, when I fantasize about going to a shiny new school in a distant land far, far away... it is a glorious feeling.

But I feel like I've missed my shot. I'm in my twenties now, going into my 4th year, and my GPA is only getting worse—last time I checked it was 2.something. Probably on the lower end of something. I know the best thing would probably be for me to tough it out to the end, but I also know I'm going to have at least two more years of school ahead of me, and the idea of finishing it here fills me with so much dread.

I think maybe I'm just looking for someone to tell me to take the leap despite all reason telling me I shouldn't lol

Hello, I am kinda nervous since I never use reddit but I seriously need help!! I am planning to transfer from my local CC after the spring. I want to transfer to Georgetown University, I have been plotting on it since my senior year of HS (I am now entering my second year of college). I have spoken to many people that have transferred from a 4-year institution, but none from a CC. I was hoping to find some kind of community in the process? I am a Public Health major, and currently pre-med as well. I have taken interest to the Global Health program at Georgetown's School of Health, which I know is very hard to get into. I have done many EC's for this, such as being VP of a medical careers club, joining an honors volunteer program that teaches children STEM, shadowed doctors, and also done 150+ volunteer hours as a phlebotomist, medical scribe, and even translator. Adding on, I am currently working on getting my CNA since I got a job offer. I also babysit my younger sibling, which is one of the reasons I chose to go to a CC. I was a bum in high school, I would usually settle for average and barely graduated. When I realized my dream school was simply unattainable because I didn't work hard enough, I decided going to a CC would be my second chance. I have also done 2 honors programs, got an award for my research, and my plans for next year are running an immigrant rights committee (since I was involved last year, I was nominated this year), and making a Women in Medicine Society (since my experience as the VP was not the best in the medical careers club, I decided to make my own). Other ECs I am doing are dance company, and finally I also am part of a Bolivian Folkloric dance team (I am half Bolivian), and this team gave me a leadership role to teach others this dance. Overall, I have been booked and busy and the grind never stops, but I am wondering if there is something missing or what your advice would be to make sure I stand out because it's rare to find transfer success stories. I also forgot to mention that many of my sciences will NOT transfer since they are from a 2-year. I have taken chemistry, but was advised not to take any other sciences like biology, physics, etc. since they will NOT transfer and it is better to not tank my GPA. Let me know if you guys have any ideas PLEASE I BEG!!! And thank you for being patient and reading my story, any help will be greatly appreciated since I am navigating this alone. If anyone has any success stories from a CC, doesn't have to be from Georgetown, I would love to hear it. Thank you again.

kapag nag transfer ba ako sa feu manila, magiging first year ulit ako kahit same course naman ‘yung itetake ko? and gano kaya katagal yung evaluation process? thank you =D

I took Dual Enrollment at a Community College and thru CUNY and planned to enroll in a state school to save on cost. Until recently I never heard of Kenyon and I like the environment there.

For context the institution that I'm attending is CUNY City College and I might transfer to Stony Brook and then to Kenyon.

I also have some AP credits though most of my AP's I got a 3 on.

Need advice about changing schools after already transferring

Hi everyone,

I'm a 16-year-old student, and I'm in a situation that's been causing me a lot of stress.

A few months ago, I left my Cambridge AS/A Level school (Holy Sai International School) due to family decisions. Since then, I've joined another school, but I haven't been able to adjust at all. I genuinely believe my previous school was a much better fit for me academically, emotionally, and for my future goals. I miss the Cambridge environment, my teachers, my friends, and the way I was learning there.

The problem is that my parents have already paid around ₹2 lakh for my current school. They're also influenced by a religious consultation that suggested I shouldn't return to my previous school, so they feel changing back isn't the right decision.

From my perspective, I don't feel happy or settled where I am now. I constantly think about returning to my previous school, and it's affecting my motivation and peace of mind. My former school has been willing to speak with us, but I don't know if my parents will agree because of the money already spent and their other concerns.

I'm trying to understand this from all sides.

If you were in my position:

• Would you keep trying to convince your parents?
• Is it reasonable to want to transfer back after only a few months if you truly believe it's the right educational environment?
• Has anyone here successfully returned to a previous school after transferring?

I'd really appreciate any advice or experiences. Thank you for reading

I am currently attending the university of Minnesota. I am in the college of education and human development with a major of kinesiology. I am about to start my third year of college, and do not want to stay at the U of M. The tuition is too expensive and I do not love it here. I am looking into transferring but want to stay on the kinesiology/exercise science track.
I have a lease signed in the Twin Cities, so I can’t move away. I am willing to commute, but would love to stay under 45 minutes away from my house.
I want to switch to another university/college, and am open to hybrid or online learning.
Are there any good universities or colleges that offer a kinesiology/exercise science program that I should look into transferring to?

please help me my mental health is horrible and im genuinely thinking about offing myself

I'm curious if anyone has experience with transferring schools from a different state. I'm planning to move to Oregon in the summer and want to complete my AAS in illustration, but I'm not sure how to go about getting the credits to another community college/university that offers the same degree. I would stick it out at my current school, or even complete my degree if I moved back, but the degree is being dissolved at the beginning of 2028. I don't want the credits I've received to be in vain. Any advice is welcome!
