<p>My neighbor transferred to NYU and is a graphic designer. She could not get the courses she wanted at the Catholic school she chose as her ug college. When you are looking to transfer to a highly selective school, do find out how many transfer spots they tend to have . You will do better at those schools like NYU, Cornell, Penn that have more attrition, and they are bigger schools, as well. Those schools that keep most of their students just are not going to have spots opening up.</p>
