I was rejected for transferring into VSB for the 2nd time now. I was initially accepted into the Class of 2015 in Arts and Sciences. In the few months before beginning my freshman year I inquired about entering the Business school but was told they will need to review my application again. I was rejected and told to try again next year. I finished my first year as a Computer Science major with a 2.8 GPA and applied again, this time I was able to write a compelling statement about why I want to become a Finance major. Again, I was rejected and told to try again for Fall 2013. I already finished 37 credits this year, only 14 of which can be applied towards a business degree. If I was accepted this year I could have graduated in time by taking a few summer classes but if I am accepted (which may not happen) for Fall 2013 I’ll definitely be spending an extra semester at nova at the very least, and that’s if I spend a summer full time taking classes or taking 20~ credits a semester. Is it worth appealing the decision, possibly attaching a resume, letters of rec., and once again explaining why I am better suited to be a Finance Major and reassuring them that this is really what I want (It is my 2nd time applying they should get the message by now?) or will they just toss this aside and stand by their decision. Or should I just jump ship and transfer to a school that is still accepting transfer applications (I know Drexel accepts them until July)? I don’t know what I want to do or what I’m going to do. I know they have made the wrong decision.
