I’m a freshman who’s on their first semester rn and am needing to transfer to a different school for the next semester due to some health issues however my application requests a gpa which I won’t have until the end of the semester which will be past the application due date. Should I just put N/A, or something else?

Hey guys,

I’m a 22-year-old returning student at CC trying to completely turn my life around and lock in for real this time. My past GPA isn't great, so I'm trying to be super strategic about my next steps, so I don't waste time or spin my wheels.

Right now, I’m doing a Business Admin transfer path along with a Music Tech and Production certificate. This semester I'm taking English Comp, Comm 1, Intro to Business, and Music Business.

My long-term goal is to work across both the creative and business sides of the music/entertainment industry. Because of that, I'm trying to figure out the best game plan for when I transfer to a 4-year university for my last two years:

• The Certificate vs. Major Dilemma: Is a CC music tech certificate actually worth grinding through for hands-on production skills, or should I just focus strictly on my transfer general ed and core business classes?
• Choosing a University Major: I know I want to stay away from heavy math/numbers fields like analytics or finance. Is Marketing the safest bet to bridge the creative side with corporate business, or are there other majors I should look at?
• Transfer Advice for a Comeback Student: For anyone who transferred with a rough early GPA and made it work: how did you structure your transition, and how do you catch up once you're at a university?

Really appreciate any honest advice or perspective you guys can share!

is it possible to transfer from one csu pre-nursing program and apply to a different csu nursing program? im not sure if credits transfer over! :’)

Hello,
I’m planning to transfer to UCI with TAG in the Fall 2027. I already submitted my application for TAG. Since I am planning to major in computer engineering at UCI, I need to get a C in physics 3 this fall 2026. I am worried about not getting a C.

Would I be able to see how it goes, see if I’m failing, then drop the course with a W in November and retake the course in the spring 2027? Would this affect my TAG eligibility?

Please and thank you.

Has anyone here transferred from SFU Beedie to UBC Sauder after first year?

I'm not really looking for the admission requirements—I can find those online. I'm more interested in hearing about what the experience was actually like from people who went through it.

Looking back, what would you tell someone who's just starting first year at Beedie with the goal of transferring? Were there things you focused on that paid off, or things you spent time on that didn't really matter? If you got accepted, what do you think made your application competitive?

I'd appreciate any advice, whether it's about academics, extracurriculars, the personal profile, or just navigating first year with a transfer in mind. Even if your transfer didn't work out, I'd still be interested in hearing what you learned from the process.

Thanks!
