2021 Fall Stanford Transfer Thread

Thanks! Wishing you the best too!

@comebackstory I just realized my reply from my og account never posted–YOU ARE PHENOMENAL. I second what Seth said!!

Thank you so much!

Yeah, I’d be down for a Discord chat room!

Can someone create it and send the link? I tried creating and sending one but I don’t think I know how to do it right haha.

Hey Guys! Here’s a link for the discord server I created: Discord

I’ve just accepted.

Thank you so much! Just joined :star_struck:

I wonder how old are you? if you feel comfortable to answer.

I am 19

OMG please I literally feel like I dont have a chance when I meet some of the transfers. I am just super concerned about my GPA!

So nervous, I keep reading my essays over and over again, hoping that it results in some scenario where I get accepted. If it makes anyone in here feel better I’m applying as a ccc transfer in philosophy with a 3.4 current GPA. Im banking on my essays which consist of taking the unconventional route of developing a successful real estate business at 17 instead of attending college (“hooks”: URM, First gen immigrant, first gen college). Highschool gpa is awful, growing up in a impoverished area, and with parents who didn’t really understand college did prove to guide me towards not doing well in school, or attending college (however it isnt an excuse, just a reality). Praying for everyone in here to make it. Just wanted to vent.

Hoping for the best for you! We both have a similar background and I completely relate with your story. Hopefully everything works out for you dude.

It’s a long shot for the both of us, but as long as you remain hopeful I’m sure that something good will come out of it. Keep up the hard work, hope for the best, and push forward. No matter what, admission or not, it doesn’t take away from who you are as a person. You got this dude
