Transferring from USC to UMN/UIUC

Transfer Students

<p>Hi everyone,</p>

<p>I am a student studying econ and math in USC (was admitted to the business). My first semester gpa is 3.6 and this semester is likely a 4.0 (talked with all professors about my grades except one). I think I am doing well here but I am an international student and the tuition here are very expensive. I am thinking of transferring to UMN/UIUC because the tuition as well as living cost is much cheaper (about 30k lower a year for UMN and the flat rate system makes these uni even better because I overload at least one course every semester…) I am worried that I will be looked down because of transferring…</p>

<p>Can someone provide me some advice please</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>No problem. You won’t be looked down upon but check out the transfer admission rates at the places you are interested in before burning any bridges.</p>
