Hey, Lovelies! This week I am putting up a college transfer advice video. Take it from me, transferring can be stressful if you don't have all the facts. So in today's video, I took the time to lay out some tips that helped get me through the process with as little stress as possible! Please leave me any more questions you have into comments!
Verse Of The Video: Romans 8:31 | "What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?"

"I wanted to know" Thank you, I am shy but I need to call and have that kind of mindset. This is awesome, really informative, seriously thank you.

@lockheart619 3 года назад

Okay this was really helpful. I'll be sure to make some sort of appointment discussing if I'm taking the correct classes because I do not want the stress of not having my credits transfer.

OMG i’m trying to transfer from KSU to UGA! the core complete thing that you mentioned is great news for me, thank you for posting!

Isabelle B. Schorn no problem I’m glad it helped. Just make sure to talk to someone at UGA admissions to make sure it can still work for you!

Why did you transfer? I’m between those two schools

@adiamfromearth6727 3 года назад

This is super helpful, thank you. I finally figured out what I want to major in, but the school that I attend doesn’t seem to have the most robust program :/ Now I’m researching schools with stronger programs, but I’m not sure how to evaluate them. How did you go about evaluating the PR major at your school as well as ones you were looking to transfer to?

@thatcurldom 3 года назад

I wish I had found the video sooner! I transferred to UGA Fall 2019 from GA Southern and I was honestly so shocked with how different it was up here. I think I missed the mark with making friends and it was really challenging and still is. I've joined orgs that I thought would be inclusive but nothing ever really stuck. I graduate next year so, Im kind of over trying to make friends. But thank you for the video I appreciate it so much!

@ashleysonyea 3 года назад

This is also a very weird time to go to school so don't be too hard on yourself! I am glad this helped and I wish you all the best of luck. Also, remember college is only 4 years out of your ENTIRE life!

@jjaayy3933 7 месяцев назад

Hey girl. I know it's been two years since you posted this comment but I'm in GA Southern now and I'm currently thinking of transferring to UGA. Do you think we can talk a bit more about your transfer process and how it went?

@saram.vanvalkenburg1812 3 года назад

Hey, thank you so much for this video! I've been thinking about transferring for a while now. I'm in a similar situation that you were in. I chose to go to a college in my hometown and so far I haven't felt like I have been getting the "true college experience" since I was so close to home. However, that is not my only reason for transferring. Most of it has to do with me not being happy at this college, and with the social aura of it all. (Especially since my school is a big party school and I hate parties too.) I wanted to ask if you had any tips about talking to parents about transferring? My parents kinda know that I want to transfer, but they still kinda want me to stay where I am because it is close to them and of course for financial reasons. I'm just not too sure what to do at this point.

@ashleysonyea 3 года назад

Hey, honestly I don’t feel like I could give you any advice because this is a very personal decision. I know that’s so cheesy and cookie cutter, however I had to make a decision that was best for me and my future. At the tend of the day when I weight all of my options, UGA was the best move for me to be able to have a degree that would help me do what I wanted after college. I feel the only thing I will say is to remember that college is only four-ish years of your life and there are so many things that you get to do with your life after. so just make sure you’re making a decision that can help possibly set you up in the best way for you! I hope this helps.

Hey, I’ll be in the same boat as you this upcoming year. How has your transfer experience been in terms of academics, friends, etc.?

@ashleysonyea 4 года назад

Vaughn McCavey academics was not bad for me at all, I just had to adjust to a new grading system. I’m not going to lie though, making friends was just a little different. Because everyone is older and has their friends from previous years, they aren’t exactly looking for new friends, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make any. My suggestion would be to make sure you are making it a point to go out if your way and you in clubs and organizations that interest you. That helped me to meet more like minded people. Idk how it’s going to be with the state of the world but just make sure to really ur yourself out there, it will be worth it! Please let me know if this helped at all or if you have any more questions!

@lucylu8901 3 года назад

Thank you for your video! Very helpful! I’m planning to transfer during sophomore spring for the junior fall, but I’m a bit concerned for if this would be too late to transfer, because I’m thinking of transferring to Ivy League schools.

Did u start from where you stopped in your previous institution or you started as a freshman

I’m taking a gap year and then transferring to Morgan state but im waiting for my accept and I’m confused if I should do fasfa now of wait until the next school year comes and I can’t ask the school because they are doing it through email so there is a waiting list

@ashleysonyea 3 года назад

Hey, that would be a good question to ask the financial aid office at the school you attend. I would email or give them a call to make sure you have the correct information!

@konaa6450 4 года назад

I’m going to Kennesaw in the fall, but I want to transfer to UGA after my freshman year. Do you know what classes I need to take to be able to transfer?

@ashleysonyea 4 года назад

Ryan Hoyland no I do not however once everything opens up I really encourage you to call and talk to the admissions office to see what will transfer. There is also website where you can type in a Kennesaw state class and see if it transfers to UGA. I am not sure what the web site is but try and look up UGA transfer credits and see if it comes up!

@konaa6450 4 года назад

Ashley Sonyea Thanks!!

@jonathanhoffman7199 2 года назад

From your experience was the classes from UGA really hard for you. I am a high school senior and I am thinking bout transferring their when I am a college student.

@ashleysonyea 2 года назад

Honestly it wasn’t that bad I just spent a lot of time looking on rate my professor to see how other students rated a professors class or how they taught and if it aligned with how I learned and those are the kind of classes that I took but I didn’t struggle that much in classes from my own personal experience.

@user-vo9vz5hn4v 3 года назад

hey im wondering if youre transferring as a coming sophomore will you be studying with the freshman in the school you transferred to ?

@ashleysonyea 3 года назад

That’s a good question and it honestly all depends. Because I transferred as a sophomore and was core complete (meaning I didn’t have to take any of the freshman or sophomore classes), I was able to hop straight into my major when I went to UGA. So I had classes with other juniors and if I had little classes that I need to make up for the most part it was classes where every level from freshman to seniors took just because that was a class that people needed and some people decided to take it later than others. I hope this helps.

@julianalexisumanabernal2281 4 года назад

@dreamchaser2549 2 года назад

Hi I am a college freshman and I want to transfer next semester to a different college and finish the rest of my freshman year at this other college. Any tips or advice would be helpful. Thank you!

@ashleysonyea 2 года назад

I would contact the school you want to transfer to because some schools won’t even allow you to transfer until after you have a certain number of credits which is typically more than just freshman year! All schools are different so talk to the admissions office at your new school and see what their requirements are! I hope this helps!

@renren4910 2 года назад

I have a question when you get your associate's degree can you trasnfer the credits from community college to a Four college?

@akondor323 3 года назад

Hello, I'm in my very first semester in my first year in a university in the middle east and I'm trying apply to some schools in Canada. In filling the application forms, I'm to disclose all post-graduate universities which means I am to state that I'm currently in school. But the problem here is that once I disclose then I'm supposed to apply as a transfer student, and I don't wanna transfer, I wish to start all over cos I'm just in my first year and I don't mind starting over from first year. Moreover my current school doesn't give transfer for international students transferring to another institution. What do I do now, can I still apply as a transfer student without my current school's permission and still start from as a fresher or there's nothing I can do?

@ashleysonyea 3 года назад

I am very sorry but my knowledge is very limited in this space. I feel the best thing you can do is get on the phone with the admissions office at the new school you want to attend and explain your situation and see what solutions they might have. I wish you all the best!

@jaydabryant5295 3 года назад

Hey, at 7:47 when you are talking about meeting with someone at UGA, was this when you were already considered a transfer student or before you transferred to UGA?

@ashleysonyea 3 года назад

I personally did this after I had already transferred and before I signed up for my classes. I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t restarting or retaking anything unnecessary therefore wasting my tuition dollars. However I do think you could reach out to someone before you decide to transfer and show them your transcript and talk about where you would possibly be and that maybe that could help you decide if transferring makes sense for you! I hope this answer helped!

@jaydabryant5295 3 года назад

@whitetigeraffair 3 года назад

What would you suggest to do if you wanted to change your major and transfer universities? Would you speak to your current advisor, change the major, then communicate with the college you want to transfer to on what all is needed for the transfer? I appreciate your guidance!!!

@ashleysonyea 3 года назад

So sorry for the late response but I would spend a little more time talking to your new college advisor in the major you want to do there. I feel like it will help you out better know what your first step should be!

hi ashley!!! Im looking to transfer to uga as well next fall as a sophomore and was wondering if you ended up living in a dorm or finding people to live in an off-campus apartment situation? Thank you❤️

@ashleysonyea Год назад

Hey, sorry for the late response but my first year I lived on campus and I moved in with someone that I knew from my previous school and the second year I lived off campus and I lived with the same girl, but we did a matchmaking system at our off-campus apartment that matches with roommates that were most like us and a lot of places offer that so you can live with someone who kind of shares your same habits

@osariemennn 3 года назад

Hey girl!! I’m an international transfer student, and I was wondering, how do I earn scholarships? I was just informed that transfer students do not qualify for need or merit based scholarships. Though I have applied for the department scholarships, do you know of any other scholarships?

@ashleysonyea 3 года назад

So sorry for the late response, but I am not sure. I feel it would be best to call the financial aid department and ask!

I would just advise you to call the admissions office of the school you want to transfer to, explain your situation and ask them the best course of action. Best you luck!

@marilynm4354 3 года назад

Thank you so much for the info! I was wondering whether financial aid is less when you’re a transfer student than it is if you are an incoming freshman. I got my financial aid award and I have to pay a good amount out of pocket but realized that I would need to get a part time job while at school in order to pay for anything and save up money. So I was wondering if as an incoming freshman this is the “best” financial aid I should get and take advantage of that or if I would get better aid as a transfer student.

@sayyafmomin9083 3 года назад

How I check my credit hour that can transfer??? Please reply

@ashleysonyea 3 года назад

Hey if you search the college that you want to go to and type in credit hours typically the college should have a website where you can type in your school what class you took and if it would transfer. However, I would also call the admissions office and schedule a time to talk to a person. You could possibly email everything that you have done and all the classes you’ve taken and someone can go over it with you and tell you what you need. I hope this helps!

@victoriaajayi2085 3 года назад

If I know that I want to transfer to another college after my freshman year, when should I start making all these preparations?

@ashleysonyea 3 года назад

I would say as soon as possible. Go on the schools sight and see what it takes to transfer, and also try and get in contact with and advisor to see what your options are!

@lockheart619 3 года назад

I would say to pay attention to deadlines for the school you want to transfer to.

@leftok693 Год назад

When you transfer are their any benefits on the cost ? Like would it still be the “same” cost or would the cost be cheaper because you attended a 2 year cc?

@ashleysonyea Год назад

The first college I attended wasn't a 2-year college, it was a 4-year college and I left after my sophomore year. In terms of if you pay more that really is up to where you came from and where you are going. Both schools were in-state for me so the tuition was relatively the same, the biggest cost that I had to look out for was my room and board, so that is a big thing to keep in mind! Hope this helps!

@eastybishop 2 года назад

As a Freshman, when should you start applying for transfer?

@ashleysonyea 2 года назад

It just depends on where you want to transfer to. For example I transferred to UGA and I had to have A certain number of hours in order to transfer so just look at what school you want to go to and how many hours they require and I would start applying when you know that you’re going to be able to hit that number hours. Like at UGA I think you had to have 30 credit hours so people will get there in the fall and start applying in spring once they already have 30 hours on their transcripts and a complete by the end of the year if that makes any sense. Basically just talk to the school that you want to transfer to and figure out when is the best time to apply to transfer

Hi how long does it take to transfer??

@ashleysonyea 4 года назад

Shania Brandy hey, it all depends on the school. For getting into UGA I had to have 30 credits which is 2 semesters or 1 year before I could apply to transfer. It only took me a couple months to find out if I made it or not. I would just call and check with the school that you want to go to in order to figure out a timeline!
