I don’t plan on applying to any non-reaches. As much as I want to transfer, if I don’t get in my reaches, I plan to just suck it up at UNC. As for the business program here, I plan to just major in CS and get a business minor if I don’t get in the program, but that’s my last resort. I’m still intent on transferring, but like you said, it is a reach. I don’t think it’d be worth it to transfer to a less prestigious school, but I’m so unhappy here that I might add 1-2 just incase. Happy to hear your thoughts on this.
USC is very similar to UNC, but I think I’d just much rather be in a different environment. I love California, and was originally going to commit to UCSD. Financially, there’s not really an issue. It was ultimately the cheaper choice, but I was moreso looking at it with an academic perspective. I’m still looking into more private schools to apply to, but it’s difficult since not a lot have undergrad business programs. I don’t plan on applying to any ivies or public schools, so that leaves me with not a lot of choices.
