Hi, i have a few questions regarding to transfer student and college program


1. What do the college look at when they review transfer student?

2. Is there a way to guarantee admission to any college, like having a 4.0 GPA?

3. What is the basis for the rating of college program, good professors, good equipments or just good campus?


Lastly, can anyone give me a list of college that will accept transfer student from a CC with a decent engineering program.( Prefer aerospace and physics )




Thank you very much.

For (2) many community colleges have agreements with a/several 4-year school(s) (often nearby) that students from the community college that meet certain conditions are guaranteed admission, other students may receive preferred consideration (ie extra points in the admission formula).
For lastly any college that accepts transfer students at all will accept them from community colleges, as to odds who can say.
