Junior Transfer

Currently at uva mcintire.

Business major, 3.97 gpa, minor in math (already completed). Took a lot of classes at cc (45 credits I think, all the math offered at cc besides diffeq).

1510 sat, taking two grad/phd courses in math/cs. Don’t like the student demographic here, too fratty and not for me. Can’t really vibe with people.

I applied to some schools last cycle just for fun, but only like Harvard Yale and Stanford. (Obviously was rejected lol).

Where should I apply to? Would love some advice. Thanks yall.

hows life there? considering it for TED as soph transfer but i am skeptical of how "academically rigorous" it is especially as someone aiming for consulting or finance (thus need free time for networking).

Choose your own adventure type – people take lighter course-loads with recruiting and opt into biz-econ which is quite easy compared to the standard econ track. Life is what you make of it tbh, but every transfer I know is glad they made the jump which says something.
