<p>If I do end up wanting to transfer…what should I get ready to do? Does Tech look at anything from high school, or just college stuff (If I want to transfer after a year).</p>
<p>Thank You</p>
<p>A simple glance at their transfer admissions page would cover the answers to your questions. Where you went to school won’t matter unless it’s the kind of school that is heavily advertised during daytime television.</p>
<p>They will just look at your college background. I transferred from an out of state community college without any problems. It was pretty straight forward from the way it’s described on their website.</p>
<p>

<p>Tech doesn’t transfer all classes from all colleges, so you’ll want to look at the Transfer equivalencies page before making that claim.</p>
<p>Looking over those pages, it’s probably going to be easier to find all the classes you’ll need at UGA than either of the other two.</p>

<p>I think he was just asking which school will look better, and all of those schools will look fine. Calc 1-2, Eng 1-2 and lab science classes should transfer from any regionally accredited school regardless of where he goes to school. GT’s website does not show all courses from all schools that will transfer, it only shows courses they have taken from schools in the past.</p>
<p>UGA is better?
I honestly did think Auburn would be better since it was more of an engineering school.</p>
<p>But does this mean that there are really no preferences or ‘best transfer college’?
If that is the case and I make it into both UGA and Auburn, which do you think I should go to (with my plan being to transfer into tech after the first year)?</p>
<p>Thank You!</p>

<p>You’re going to transfer before any engineering classes. Depending on your major, you just need the equivalent of two semesters of English, two semesters of Calculus, two lab sciences, maybe a CS class, and enough “other classes” to get you to 30 total hours with a 3.0 or higher GPA. The school doesn’t really matter - Auburn is as good as UGA, which is as good as a community college.</p>
<p>What UGA will give you that other schools won’t is more of an option among those “other classes” since UGA has more approved courses for transfer. So instead of taking the few approved transfer courses for your college, at UGA you can start working on major requirements before transferring. </p>
<p>But really we’re working backwards in this thread. Where do you live? Go to an in-state school then transfer to Tech.</p>
<p>I live in GA, but i might get a nice scholarship from auburn…in which case i would want to go there for a year since it would be cheaper than UGA (and i think it has better starting courses?)
I want to major in EE and CE</p>
<p>Sorry - your last post just threw me off a bit … </p>
<p>You <em>might</em> get a scholarship from Auburn? If this is for academic reason, I would assume that you also qualify for the HOPE scholarship in GA (you’re instate!) - in that case, I would not understand why you wouldn’t go to Tech in the first place … </p>
<p>If the scholarship is NOT for academic reason - why would you want to leave that school again? </p>
<p>I don’t really understand why you think already of transferring from one college to another while you’re still at HS? This seems a little weird … </p>
<p>btw: of the coolleges listed Purdue is by far the one closest to Tech regarding academic reputation (assuming you’re interested in Engineering).</p>
<p>Sorry if I was confusing.
The entire premise of my question was if I did not make it into tech from high school.
If i make into tech, then i will just go there directly.</p>
