I. GPA
In terms of credits, the four-year system is better, but in terms of GPA, community transfer is simpler. First, two-year communities generally sign agreements with schools in the same state;
Secondly, community courses are relatively simple, and students can get higher grades. However, compared with four-year universities, the students in clubs are more complicated, and the influence of students should also be taken into account.
Second, the United States undergraduate transfer credits?
Transfer between American universities will require the transfer of credits to American undergraduate courses. Freshmen and seniors can't transfer to American undergraduate credits. Freshman is because there are too few credits, and students apply almost the same as freshmen;
If you are a senior, American universities will not give you a degree after only one year.
The number of transfer credits between undergraduate students in the United States is determined by the students themselves and the schools they apply for. It is up to the students to decide whether to transfer more or less between American universities. The difference lies in whether to change majors. It is necessary to be prepared to change majors, and the credits that can be transferred to new majors will naturally be less.
The quantification of transfer credits is determined by the other school, and whether there is any loss will be calculated after the school accepts you.
From the point of transfer credits: 4 years of university transfer >; Community transfer > domestic transfer.
Third, Sadie and Sadie?
Not every school in the United States has to transfer Sat between undergraduate courses. If you want to apply for the top 20, you basically need SATI and at least 2 SATII scores;
If it is 30-50, Sati is enough, but it does not rule out that there are more and more excellent students and the competitors are getting better and better. If other students have SATI SATII, the threshold is too high.
Schools after 60 basically no longer require SAT.
Fourth, report card certification.
There are more and more schools in the United States that need transcript certification for inter-university transfer, and the tactics are becoming more and more complicated. Transcript authentication mainly depends on the authenticity of students' transcripts, and requires students to provide the school's results inquiry website, student ID card and inquiry password.
After the general domestic certification is completed, it will take nearly 1-2 months to get the results.
Extended data:
In recent years, many students began to apply for prestigious American universities through undergraduate transfer. No matter what means, as long as they meet the requirements, they can apply for admission to American universities, which has become a way for many students to enter famous American universities.
What should students who want to apply for American universities through undergraduate transfer pay attention to?
1, the transfer time planning should be reasonable.
In the first two years of undergraduate education in the United States, general education courses are mainly taken, accounting for about 40-60 credits, and the requirements of different schools are different. Many students decide their majors after taking general education courses, and their juniors and seniors only focus on professional courses.
If you submit a transfer application in your freshman year, the undergraduate admissions office of an American university can decide whether to accept the transfer application, and the department does not need to participate in the admission process, especially if the applicant does not choose an undergraduate major and only needs to apply for a transfer to a preparatory course, which is relatively easier to be admitted.
After receiving the transfer application and course description, the school will generally evaluate the general credits of the transfer students before accepting them.
Most American colleges and universities require transfer students to complete at least 26-30 credits, that is, after their freshman year, they can start submitting transfer applications. Other universities even require applicants to have 30 credits to apply for transfer.
Although the policies of universities in the United States for undergraduate transfer are not exactly the same, there is a * * * nature, that is, they generally do not accept transfer applications from freshmen or seniors, and even some colleges and universities in official website have explicitly stated that they do not accept transfer applications from seniors (juniors and seniors).
2, material preparation should be comprehensive.
The materials that students applying for undergraduate transfer need to provide include: high school transcripts and university course descriptions, in both Chinese and English, stamped with the official seal of the school; Three letters of recommendation from school teachers; TOEFL test scores sent by ETS; Personal statement. Choose a theme, show your personal style, be humorous and sincere, and express the meaning of adapting to different cultures to you;
SAT test; Financial certificate; The application fee required by the school and the completed application form.
3, undergraduate transfer matters needing attention
In American schools, transfer students are admitted together with freshmen, and there is no separate audit mechanism. Therefore, anyone who intends to transfer must apply as soon as possible, and first ensure that the application is completed before the deadline of the other school.
In other words, transferring is equivalent to reapplying for a school, except that you applied for the United States. Once you have a transfer plan, you should first apply to the Immigration Bureau for this approval, because it will take some time for the Immigration Bureau to process your application, so try to get the transfer approval before transferring.
4. Soft power background improvement
Extracurricular activities: It can be used as supplementary explanatory materials. On the one hand, it can show personal achievements and awards, and more is to show hobbies and personality bias, so don't underestimate this part when applying.
Internship experience: it is best to be related to the major you are applying for. For example, if you apply for a computer major, it will be more useful if you have an internship in network maintenance.
Students' Union and Societies: Every year, countless students call themselves the presidents of student unions, so that it seems that all the presidents of student unions in China have gone to the United States. In fact, it is not necessarily the chairman who can show leadership. If you write a report-like document about your work and send it to the admissions officers together with the materials, they will be deeply impressed.
Patent invention: It may be the most useful for business, but it is also far from everyone. If you really have enough strength to own your own patented invention, or participate in the creation or major activities of a company or enterprise, it will be helpful to have a company certificate.
These four factors need to be grasped.
