better to transfer in winter or fall

I’d go with the fall, personally. You’ll get the housing, and overall the programs for incoming students are more geared towards people starting in the fall. It’s not such a big deal, you won’t be SOL if you start in the winter, but that’s my advice. Also by rushing thru classes how are you going to master the material? The point ought to be not just to get credits, but to learn something along the way. If everything is crammed into your short-term memory for a test and you promptly forget it to concentrate on the next test, that may not be the best approach to spending your college years. Just my 2 cents.
