hi! recently admitted transfer, gonna tour first next week and then commit. i want to house here is it likely for that to happen? i heard it’s nice and am going to fill out the form for it before june 1st.
As commencement is tomorrow, where is everyone going? (if transferring)
what should i do now to get into this (or at least strategy at an entertainment company) im also focusing on new technology in the creative industry
context:
transfer student from cc heading to johns hopkins in the fall (yay!) for political economy with a focus in technology and innovation
- idk what minor i should add (marketing/comms, business, film/media?)
- idk what internships are attainable
- already did a us senate internship & campaign ones
GOAL is harvard, yale, columbia, stanford, nyu law school. (yes im aiming high or nothing tbh)
i’m an incoming (probably) transfer student who’s likely pre law and not a stem major, and i’ve heard that the career fairs suck?
i’m rlly nervous but hopkins is my top option because of the aid i got (wanting to go to grad school/be in a city) and i don’t wanna regret it.
has anyone done this? i’m not a film major but i’m interested in working in the creative /entertainment industry
any alum here working in business or policy in the media/entertainment industry?
TRANSFER!
• not STEM, im interested in political economy at hopkins or econ/gov at uva.
• also interested in a focus in technology / tech ethics
• i’m interested in grad school (interested in entertainment/media/copyright side of law & business)
• interested in research on tech & media intersection
jhu 19k a year
uva 45k a year
• cost seems like the main determinant
pros uva
• alumni network
• more social? idk im not into greek life
pros jhu
• proximity to dc & sem in dc program
• less comp in humanities
• cost
i know im leaning hopkins, but i rlly would appreciate opinions!
+ im waiting on georgetown still but idk if they’d be worth it if they’re expensive too

i’ve seen a couple people on here ask how to do your AS in one year + transfer and I wanted to make a little helpful post.
context, i didn’t know i was even going to nova full time til july last year, but i started taking 7 credits over the summer in june (all pre reqs)
took 19 credits in the fall (had to fill out a credit overload form)
3 in the winter
19 in the spring (had to fill out a credit overload form)
also i had 15 credits transfer over form high school that were dual enrollment! - totals to 62-63 credits i believe
just wanted to let anyone know its possible! i did a lot of credits online due to transportation and they were still accepted by schools i got into.
I just got into jhu as a transfer for political science, but i’m interested in applying to the MPE major and heard its rolling through August?
I’m coming in w/ around 55 credits, so late sophomore-junior not sure yet, and I’m curious if it’s possible to do that since the majors only like 40 credits. I’m also very interested in the technology & innovation focus.
Just curious about how those programs are and the opportunities for consulting, pre law, and anything else related are? Also how much students do stuff in DC?
transfer admit - what off campus housing is closest and what’s best
hi! i just got into jhu as a transfer for either poli sci or econ.
just curious about how those majors are and the opportunities for consulting, pre law, and anything else related are?
just wanted to let you all know that cc to t10 is possible. i’m so grateful and can’t wait 🙂
literally so scared after getting rejected from barnard (needed aid)
i was rejected last year in hs and now i’m graduating with my associates early, does it hurt if i was rejected last year?
it’s one of my top choices
hi! i’m currently a cc student (graduating with my associates in one year) with a 4.0 in poli sci. i’m transferring this fall to likely uva (already admitted) or another t25, but my end goal is harvard, yale, or columbia law (would love to aim for one of columbia’s tuition scholarships)
my interest is in IP / media law, just wondering if anyone else has gone to cc and then gotten into a top law school? i plan to major in econ at uva but not sure if i should do something else?
i want to have a gap year between attending or applying to law school for context likely.
any advice on my path and interests would be helpful!
- past ecs: us senate intern, campaign fellow & intern, running my own political media org and building it up currently, other state & national leadership in political orgs
when should i also start LSAT studying? and what GPA would i need at my 4 year of my cc one would be a 4.0?
one of two of my last hopes
poli sci major applying to jhu
ima be honest i think it’s cause i needed financial aid.
is there hope for georgetown or JHU still if not even barnard took me 💔
i want to get a consulting internship or something as an analyst, but i come from more of a politics background (US senate intern, etc.) i’m an economics student now though, and i was wondering if there’s any smaller or remote positions i should apply to, rather than aiming for a big firm.
cc student here, got into UVA for college of arts & sciences - econ. i know it’s a great school, and im very grateful for the opportunity, but its just not where i see myself thriving. i feel bad, but ill explain.
- number 1, im in state and would much rather be in a city
- not into greek life
- not super into sports, but school spirit is nice
- bigger undergrad class, i favor smaller ones (under 8k maybe), where they’re at least 15-20k
- clubs i’m interested in are very competitive (mock trial, pre law, consulting) especially as a junior transfer
- not huge for consulting outside of mccintire i hear, and i’d be in CAS for economics instead w/ a background in politics
i know it’s still a great school! it’s just hard to picture myself there, let alone doing what i’d like to as a junior transfer
i’m waiting on Georgetown (top choice, rejected in hs), barnard, jhu, and GW
- georgetown is my top choice
- barnard is also a top, but they’re need aware and i need prob 50% of the cost covered
- jhu still good but idk if i’d chose over uva for econ, or pre law w/ interest in science/tech policy
- idk if GW would be worth being in DC over UVAs recruitment and name recognition
