Although colleges will ask for your SAT/ACT scores if you are transferring before junior year, they will NOT be impressed by new, higher scores from a college student. You are expected to do better on the tests. I do not see NYU/Stern (presuming that’s what you are interested in) happening at all, either academically or financially. It is even more selective for transfers than it is for freshman admissions. There is no reason to presume that you will be more attractive as a mid-year freshman transfer. They might be more accommodating if you applied as a junior, but that involves thriving at Bloomington for the next two years. Once you’ve done that, you might decide to stay.
