Anybody know the average GPA needed to get into Marshall “for sure” as a transfer student. My son is interested in possibly transferring to USC from Indiana University’s business program–so I have a personal reason for asking. His current GPA is right around 3.6–and I notice that on the Marshall website it says “Applicants who earn a minimum ‘B’ grade in each prerequisite course and maintain an overall cumulative 3.6 grade point average will have an advantage in the evaluation process”

Also, I notice in the literature that the average university transfer applicant accepted to USC has a 3.57 GPA.

So is this about the average for Marshall as well? And what else do they look at besides whether you took the prerequisities and got good grades?

Lastly, he just finished his freshmen year–so I presume he should apply for acceptance in Fall 2008–correct?

Thanks for any help you can provide.
