If you applied for freshman admission last year you can apply to transfer by using the Re-open application this year ([William & Mary - Reopen Applicants](http://www.wm.edu/admission/undergraduateadmission/applicationprocess/reopenapplicants/index.php)) which is a much more simplified process.

Financial aid is open to transfer students and we are need blind just as we are for freshmen applicants. We cannot promise that your aid package will not change but if your family’s financial circumstances haven’t changed it is likely we’ll be able to offer a similar package.

As for courses, we’d recommend a science course (biopsych would be okay but we’d recommend a hard science like bio, chem or physics), a history course and then either the lit course or IR/soc/music course you mentioned. That would provide a nice well-rounded schedule for your first few semesters.

We no longer provide “chance me” info in CC (see the top post in this forum) but we encourage you to review other transfer chance me posts, our blog and our website for more info.
