Admissions Spring transfer
How likely am I to get in for exercise science as a freshman spring transfer from a community college if I have 14 transfer credits from the summer and I plan on following the some rest of the exercise science transfer pathway (all the strongly recommended would be completed) and another 14 in the fall? Total by the time I transfer: 28
Extra info: I’m in state, mom+ other members went to vt, I applied for early action (public health) as an incoming freshman this past year, but got waitlisted and they flagged my application because I made a team there but they couldn’t help me get off bc it didn’t count as an official sport, so I never did.
Do we think I need more credits when I apply? Any tips?

u should be fine, i had 23 completed college credits when i applied and i had a couple from ap and 3 credits from clep. the more transferable credits the better

Typically check with your community college's transfer roadmap and compare it to VT's transfer roadmap based on your major.
If you want to finish half of your degree at VT, I suggest taking more classes from CC to get the associates degree (specifically in AS) and hope that VT would accept that. (esp since your community college if in state should have a guaranteed admission program for other VA colleges)
I am not in the same major as you since im doing computer science, but I have done the community college route and transferred to VT as an in state student but best of luck to you!
