Hi I just got denied to SABA and they have asked me to try MUA and I was wondering if I could transfer to Saba after doing my basic science there.???

Yep. There are a series of threads about transferring from MUA to SABA. Most do it if they do premed at MUA, they then try to transfer into SABA for med1.

Just keep in mind if you're transferring from MUA to SABA for the sake of "50 state approval" (specifically Cali.) and you've already done basic sciences at MUA, it's kind of for not, because you have to do all of your med school training at an approved school for that state otherwise no dice, hence why most do it after having took premed and having not started med1 yet.

Anyway, do a search and you'll get more than enough answers, here are some to start you off:

No, most likely. And it wouldn't do you any good if you could. Since you wouldn't have done your basic science at Saba you would not be eligible for the state approvals (like California) that Saba has. You would be restricted to the approvals of MUA. So what's the point?

Students who do well and graduate from the MUA pre-med program do get accepted to Saba (it's not a transfer, in fact), but then they do the entire basic science program at Saba.
