<p>I graduated from a cc (bhcc) last spring and am currently doing my first semester at umass boston. I reaaally don’t like it here and umass amherst has always been my dream school. But I checked their website and it says the deadline for a spring transfer was october 1st…</p>
<p>What can I do? I’d appreciate any suggestions!</p>
<p>I actually just applied for the spring semester, just meeting the deadline of October 1st. Unfortunately, you’re not going to be able to apply for Spring 2013, but the deadline for Fall 2013 is April 15th. Hampshire College is another cool place in Amherst and their deadline is October 15th, so you still have some time. I recommend you try applying there so you could at least get away from UMass Boston. And you’d also be living in Amherst for a whole semester so you’d get a good feel for the place and could possibly even take some classes at UMass through the 5 schools thingy. Then just apply to UMass for the Fall. Good luck!</p>
<p>Oh, they have a program for CC grads. They take that determination into consideration so it could give you a better chance. I really think you should contact someone with the school who can tell you about that.</p>
<p>Deadlines are not always firm.</p>
<p>Contact the school and see if they will still let you apply for Spring 2013.</p>
