First of all, depending on how many credits you've already gotten you may not be eligible to transfer into another school for a diploma. Most schools won't take a transfer if they're not getting a majority (60+) credits of their degree at their school. Secondly, if you have more than 60 credits to get at the Ivy fine, but if you don't think you'll finish at the top in the Ivy don't bother. You'll get more notice at the top of your class at JMU than in the middle or bottom at Harvard. Lastly, unfortunately the most important thing in getting into a good Grad school (like Wharton at UP) are your GRE's. Much much more important than even your GPA. Good friends daughter was a triple major at UP with a 3.5 GPA and tons of extracurricular activities but only in the 150's on her LSATS only got into a 3rd tier law school. Did well and just graduated but it didn't get her into a top law school. Those standardized tests are still the be all end all. Get a tutor and ace the GRE's if an Ivy grad school is important.
