Transfer after first year.

Currently Attend Villanova University and am enrolled in the business school. I am looking at: UVA, UPenn, Georgetown, UT austin, Cornell aem, and USC. I had a 3.8 in high school, with a significant upward trend junior and senior year got a 4.3 senior year. SAT Math-650, Reading-650, writing-680. ACT-29. I was involved in high school and have work experience, two financial internships and a year working at a restaurant. Currently at Villanova I am in the fixed income society, multicultural society and a few others so I am involved. I am shooting for a 3.8 but worse case should have a 3.6. Any thoughts my number 1 choice is UVA and I am in state.

 

Upenn / Georgetown and Cornell are clearly the most prestigious institutions on that list and the ones you should shoot for.... but they sound pretty stretchy.

UT, UVA and USC are all respectable though, and they'd be a huge step of from Nova... so long as you get good grades at one of these three you could be on your way.

 

Firstly there are a number of reasons for transferring. Most importantly going to a better school that will help get a job in IB. Others are the lack of diversity, cost, etc. Fixed income society is a business society in which we meet and talk about bonds. Thanks for the opinions any others.

One of those lights, slightly brighter than the rest, will be my wingtip passing over.
