Good liberal arts colleges with higher transfer rates?

Where are you willing to go? What’s your GPA? Are you male or female?

Kenyon is a fantastic LAC that has a reasonable transfer acceptance rate. In fact, I know a young man who transferred there and is now working in a very lucrative career. Oberlin, also in Ohio, could be a good possibility. Both have a great reputation.

What about Franklin & Marshall or Lafayette in PA? If you are a woman, I would suggest Bryn Mawr or Mt. Holyoke. Macalester has a lower transfer acceptance rate, but is a possibility. All the colleges I have mentioned have a certain level of prestige.

EDIT: I see you already posted a thread, which you ought to have linked here. It lists your stats. What are my chances - very nervous please help!

Why are you saying you can’t get into a school with a low acceptance rate? You have a 4.0. College don’t care about your HS GPA or your test score anymore. You have shown you can do the work, so reach high if you like. I think your list is very reach heavy. Some of the colleges on the list don’t match my idea of what an LAC is, in particular BC, BU, Cornell, all the Cal schools, and U Michigan.
