Hello! Congratulations to all the students who have been admitted, and best of luck to those still waiting on their decisions! We are Northwestern University’s Transfer Student Organization, the first student organization at Northwestern University dedicated to enhancing the experience of transfers on campus.
The Transfer Student Organization (TSO) was founded in 2017 to help fill in the gaps and facilitate the transition of transfer students to their new home at NU. Through social events, mentorship pairings, and informative programming, TSO strives to make transfer students feel more at home on campus, and cater to the specific needs of transfer students which may sometimes be overlooked.
Feel free to send an email to tso@u.northwestern.edu with any questions you may have about Northwestern, our transfer experiences, or the transfer process in general. Also, follow our new Instagram account @transfersofnu to hear from current students about their transfer stories, and how Northwestern has impacted them.
Congratulations again, and we hope to see you here in the fall!
Should I send in my final grades ASAP or maybe wait to see if I get admitted in the next two weeks? Final grades for my current schools aren’t officially due for another week, so I could stall if I wanted to.
4.0 Fall Semester
3.6 This semester (I’m transferring as a sophomore so these would be my only grades):
A+ in gen ed
A in gen ed
B in gen ed science
A+ in graduate course in my major
and B+ in intro to computer science.
3.6 is low, so I’m thinking of waiting, but the A+ in the graduate course might be good enough to balance the B’s.
What do you think?
