Transfer Chance!

<p>So what are the chances of being accepted as a transfer student? I’m a double major right now in sociology and business. </p>

<p>I go to Emory now, and USC has been my dream school. I applied and didn’t get in but I got into Emory which is obviously a better school than USC. Anyway, Emory sucks/wasn’t what I am looking for or want in a school.</p>

<p>I’m looking at, for the end of this semester, probably a 3.8 GPA at Emory.</p>

<p>HS stats:
GPA 3.75 UW from one of the best HS in the country
ACT: 33 (M - 35, R - 34, S - 32, W - 30)
I was extremely involved in a few activities that were a major part of my life outside of school (as I chose them to). </p>

<p>What are the chances of me getting into USC as a transfer?</p>

<p>Also, how important are my:</p>

<p>1) College GPA vs HS GPA
2) Test scores
3) HS letters of recommendation vs college professor recommendation
4) HS involvement vs College involvement
5) Prestige of my current school (Emory)</p>

<p>You might get a better response posting on the USC 2010 transfer thread - they have a very lively discussion going on over there. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/transfer-students/743892-usc-2010-transfer-thread-40.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/transfer-students/743892-usc-2010-transfer-thread-40.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>(You also might try omitting the “…obviously better school…” bit. It isn’t quite as obvious to those of us who love USC.)</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>It’s easier to transfer in to USC. DD has a friend that has lousy high school grades and SAT but transferred in after on year at that college. This college is not as prestigious as Emory so I think you have a great chance. Especially applying a second time means you really want to go to USC. Good luck!</p>

<p>Thanks. And I holistically, I don’t think Emory is better than USC, hence why I am transferring there.</p>

<p>Sorry I meant the college she was transferring from(not USC) vs Emory.</p>
