I’m a freshmen in college and I was planing on transferring from my current university to Northeastern for my junior year for their criminal justice program. I was going to stick to that plan until I noticed that they postponed the deadline until the end of this month. I do not have any college recommendation letters or transfer records ready at this time. I received a 2.9 GPA last semester but with my current grades it should balance out to be 3.1 GPA by the end of this semester. I feel like I most likely will not be accepted but there might be a chance. Should I just wait it out until my sophomore year so that I can get my GPA up and my recommendations ready? If I get rejected this year and I apply my sophomore year. Will the admissions board’s decision be effected in a negative way by my attempts to get into the school?
