<p>So here’s what I mean by double transfers:</p>
<p>I apply for spring transfer, get admitted, move to a new school, then apply for fall transfer in another school, get admitted, and move to another school. </p>
<p>Would this be possible?</p>

<p>Why would you do this?</p>
<p>Just in case…</p>
<p>And for curiosity; but I guess that can happen…</p>
<p>any school you apply for fall transfer will have the exact same Why? question. “Just in case” and curiosity are not good reasons.</p>
<p>No… I mean OK, think about this case:</p>
<p>Your family (parents or children) needs to move to somewhere, and you realize that you would also have to move for some particular reasons. So you go by spring transfer. Then your family again moves for some reason, so you go by fall transfer. My point is, would this be possible, then?</p>
<p>Yes. But that would not be “just in case.” That would be for an understandable reason.</p>
<p>I used “just in case” to mean “just in case when understandable reasons, like family problems, occur…”</p>
<p>Why does your family moving affect what college you attend? You’ll already be off to college…</p>
<p>The less selective the target schools, the more likely they would accept you.</p>
<p>But Erin’s dad makes a good point. Why does your parents’ address force you to move schools? If I were a selective college and saw that as one of your reasons for wanting transfer admission, that would be a serious red flag.</p>
<p>I know a girl who transferred colleges 3 times in 2 years (so actually attended 4 colleges in 2 years). None of them was competitive to get into, so it was easy for her. She was also very lucky all her credits transferred each time. Her reasons included cost, getting kicked off an athletic team, and following a boyfriend. </p>
<p>Personally, I wouldn’t recommend transferring, especially more than once, but of course every situation is different.</p>
<p>Your parents’ moving could induce you to transfer if, either by choice or by necessity, you’re a commuter who lives at home.</p>
<p>Not everyone who attends college is living in the dorms at Ohio State or Middlebury.</p>
<p>^ True, but I certainly don’t get that from the OP’s other posts about how attendance is taken at UIUC and what schools offer a gap year. Just a very puzzling series of questions… Thus the reason behind my question.</p>
<p>Ah, I didn’t appreciate the context. In that case, I understand your curiosity.</p>
