transfer

.

This is just out of curiosity, but I was wondering if you could earn graduate credits which could be transferred into the PhD portion of an MSTP program to cut down on the time in the MSTP program?

I am currently in SUNY geneseo which is slightly (not much) higher ranked than UB. Though I like the school I think it would be more beneficial for my health to be at home. Not to mention I already have two internships lined up if I do go and much more connections in Buffalo. Would it hurt my...

I recently transferred schools from another institution. When applying to medical school, how are my separate GPAs accounted for? Do they use some standardized method to calculate an overall GPA?

Hi, I would like to know if there has been anyone who has transferred out of a BSMD program and continued to medical school the traditional way? If yes, I would like to ask about your experience. Thanks in advance!

So currently I am a freshman in an accelerated BS/MD program at a low tier university. So far, I have been disliking this program, the university, and the environment. I've cried many days every week since I've been here and thought about transferring to another university and leaving this...

Hi all. I got my BA in Journalism from Wayne State University (Detroit) in 2015 and have recently decided to go to medical school. I'm taking my first few post-bacc classes at Wayne State now, but I'm considering a move to the University of Michigan to finish them. U of M is a better...

I went to SUNY Oswego for 2 years as a Zoology major, and I have transferred to SUNY Stony Brook in Fall 2016. Since Stony Brook only accepts C and higher, my organic chemistry 2 grade did not get transferred over. So, as a result, I am retaking it and struggling very badly. Here are my chem...

Hi guys, I'm so sorry if this has been asked before - I couldn't find much on the site. ANYWAYS, I'm currently a first year veterinary student. I have never wanted to practice medicine in a traditional sense, but I thought vet school was an appropriate avenue to public health and zoonoses and...

So I know this has been asked a million times, but I'm not finding any threads of people in my particular position. I am academically doing well but want to transfer for (a) social/geographic reasons (really small school in the middle of nowhere...not my thing), (b) research opportunities, and...

Hello, Apologies ahead of time for the title or location of this post... [I'm obviously new (1st Post)]. I need outside perspective and/or advice on a VERY specific situation that I am in. This is a little detailed and long, but I assure you it's only to get the most accurate feedback. Me: At...

I've posted this before but didn't include some more questions I might need help with. I'm currently a Junior at my state school with a solid GPA, about 100-120 hrs shadowing/volunteering, and probably over 500 hrs of research and much more coming. I haven't taken the MCAT yet. I have been given...

Hello I'm graduating soon from an overseas university, and was wondering how I would be able to apply to med school. I learned that the Amcas doesn't calculate outside the US university courses, so essentially my GPA is non existent. I have done some of my prereqs at my uni (as a bio major)...

So, I'm currently going to a small state school which I planned to attend for two years before transferring to UIUC (only about 45 min. away). I did this b/c, at the time, I was just planning on engineering and I could easily do the pre-engineering program at the small state school then...

I'm currently an Engineering/Pre-Med student at a small state university in my hometown. Part of the reason I choose this school was because of finances (I was offered the most financial aid here) and the engineering program they offer is a pathway, of sorts, to an highly ranked engineering...

Hello. I mistakenly submitted this please ignore. Thank you!

I am currently ending my first semester at a CSU, but am very unhappy here. I ended the semester with good grades, considering it being my first semester, 2 A's and 2 B's. I have made the decision to transfer out of the university, because I don't feel comfortable here, am having financial...

Hey Everyone, This is my first post on SDN, long time lurker. Just wanted to ask some for your opinions on my progress, "what are my chances?", and if theres anything you think I can improve.. I was a transfer student and had a weak freshman year (bc of reasons), but my GPA has improved...

I am in my first year at a community college and there are no other pre-med students here. Most of the students in my math/science classes and the school are engineering majors. I would really like to meet other students who are also on the pre-med track right now, but I do not know how. When I...

Hello, I recently transferred from a top 50 to a very small, no-name school close to home. After this semester is over I am thinking of attending DePaul University to complete my undergraduate studies. Can anyone enlighten me on DePaul's reputation to outside of midwest Dental Adcoms (e.g. USC...

Any advice for contacting programs about available transfer positions? I know that the party line is to tell your PD that you want to leave and then blanket email every program in the country and pray. That said, I would like to hear about people's experiences since there does not seem to be...

Hey fellow SDNers, I am studying abroad in an Israeli-US program. I love it here but I do miss home and was wondering how transferring to an American medical school would work out for me? Any good ( - hopefully) stories?

Hi all, this is my first time posting here. I am currently attending a CC. I am going to be graduating with exactly 90 credits in December with my AAS. I have done a lot of floundering around in finding what I want to do. In addition, many of my classes were completed while I was still in...

I took classes from three different universities, and transferred all the credits to Oregon State University from which I graduated from. I sent in my transcripts from all three schools to PTCAS (received), but I entered the classes straight from my OSU transcript rather than the separate...

Hello. So I know this is an interesting and somewhat odd dilemma and would really be open to some honest advice and opinions on the best route to go. If you look at my previous threads you can get some background into the situation, but here it is. I attended my freshman year at the University...

I'm a 2nd year EU medical student and I want to live in Austria, is there any chance I could transfer to a medical school there? The language is not a problem, but I need to know if my 2 year study could be continued there because I don't really want to repeat them. Or would it be better if I...

Hey guys! I've been studying medicine in Europe for 2 years and now I'm taking a skip year because of family reasons (my sister was told day becofe her graduation that she has a brain tumor so I opted to come home to stay with her.) and next spring my sister is applying to study in US and due...

I have a pretty long back story, but the gist of my question is this: I'm currently an IMG (St. George's) debating dropping out and returning to the US and either applying to a US medical school if possible or doing a masters program and possibly attempting medical school later. So I'm...

I`m a PGY-1 in psych and am actually really liking my program, it has a strong curricullum and I have been doing great. However, as an IMG before residency I did away rotations at another institution and started doing research on a certain topic with an attending there that became a true mentor...
