To Transfer or Not to Transfer? That is the Question

<p>Sorry about the text block…I have been awake for…lots of hours. What you guys said was really helpful, though! I suppose after I sleep for two million hours and talk about this with my parents, I can come up with a pros and cons list. I will add, just for now, that I think I’d probably handle transferring pretty well. I know high school is completely different from college, but I had to move right before eleventh grade, and I ended up being way more involved in my second high school than my first! I don’t know if that helps anything, though.</p>

<p>Another thing I guess I should consider are the credits I have now. So far, I’ve got 51 credit hours, so I guess if I end up somehow losing a few that don’t transfer I should be okay…but I swear if I have to take another math class I just might die. I heard somewhere that Emory won’t count math modeling for a math credit, and that’s what I took…also, I made a 3 on the AP bio exam, and while that gets me credit now, I don’t think that would transfer over to Emory, so I’d have to take bio. Not that that’s a problem, it’s just annoying.</p>

<p>And one more very important question: Is it a requirement at Emory to write an undergraduate thesis? I have to write one for the honors program, and I’m just asking because I really want to do one…or maybe two…I’m a double major in writing and linguistics (that’s one major) and English here, so technically I can do a capstone project and a thesis if I write a short story collection and then do research that pertains to English (which I’ve already sort of planned and gotten approved by one of my English professors and our honors program director), </p>

<p>I just feel like I really established myself this year, and especially this summer. But I guess if I can make a name for myself during a five week summer semester, I can do it again in a year. </p>
