<p>I don’t need to discuss the Northwestern Mutual internship itself, that’s been talked about countless times. If I were to do it, I’m not expecting to make anything of it. But I’m applying for transfer for fall of next year so I only have this semester to build my application if I want to have any chance of getting into an Ivy or even NYU. I have a 3.9 with a few minor EC’s, and mediocre highschool grades. So I’d certainly need more than just a 4.0 next semester.</p>
<p>For no other purpose than to help my chances of transfer, should I do it? It is considered in the finance field and I’m majoring in finance, but it’s really just selling insurance to family/friends. I know that doing it will obviously be better than not doing it, but it will take a lot of time and that might be better spent of something such as polishing my application essays.</p>
