Transferring from another college spring semester

Hey, I'm currently a freshman at Villanova University at the business school. I guess I made this decision late (obviously), but I know I want to do engineering. I already plan to transfer to the engineering school here, but I want to know the logistics of transferring spring semester to Lehigh. I plan on keeping my GPA least above 3.6-3.8 and ideally 3.9-4.0. Also, is it better to apply fall, or can you apply both spring and fall?

I know they take into high school stats, so here they are:
SAT: 1490, 700 reading, 790 math

GPA: 99.4 or 4.0

APs taken and their scores: AP Calc BC: 4, AP Physics 1: 4, AP Physics 2: 3, AP Statistics: 4, AP French and Spanish: 4, AP Pre-Calc: 5, AP Chem: 4, AP Comp Sci Java: 4

I have ECs but idk how much they matter now.

Id say do it. Doesn't hurt to try if the price isnt too much different. But ive also heard Villanova has a good engineering program too.
