I recently got accepted to LPS program through transfer admission. I am 21 now, and finished my first two years at Rochester University with GPA of 3.7ish.

I originally applied to LPS because I considered myself as an untraditional student, working about 50 hours/week, and heard that LPS courses are much cheaper than CAS ones. Yet, after reading numerous articles and posts saying LPS is more like a “CASH-COW”, not to mention I didn’t even get the Student Handbook from Penn yet (I presume LPS do not give out student handbook in hardcopy?), I wanted to transfer to CAS so badly. I will be a junior once I get there.

Is it possible to transfer from LPS to CAS for a junior who transferred from other college? Has any1 done that b4?

Please share your experience, Thx
