<p>Hey all,</p>
<p>A lot of people apply to transfer to schools looking for their chances. I think the best way to find out your chances of acceptance/rejection to X school is to compare your profile to profiles of other students admitted/rejected to X school.</p>
<p>I'll start a forum on transfers.</p>
<p>Is anyone who was accepted as a transfer student to a 1st-tier school (Ivy, Stanford, or MIT) willing to share their profile (ie what their credentials were, what earned them admission), or the profile of someone who was accepted? I've noticed a startling lack of admitted student profiles for these schools, and I would like to remedy that.</p>
<p>I would be happy to share my profile, but bear in mind that I was rejected as a transfer student to Dartmouth Yale and Stanford. So my profile would only serve to show what's lower than the bar, not where the bar is.</p>
<p>Isn’t there a transfer related forum? Perhaps you’d do better there with this dead tread?</p>
<p>jadorenewal17 you chose 3 of the hardest transfer schools in the country. FYI - next time put apps to Northwestern, Chicago, Rice, WashU, Georgetown, etc - they have many more transfer spots.</p>

<p>-I was not expecting admission to USC and UMich, to be honest. They were dream schools (but with UIllinois being #1), so I figured I should apply and see what happens.</p>
<p>Oh, and by the way, I am going for pre-med, and taking Kinesiology at UMich :)</p>
<p>But to sum up my profile, I was a not so special student (exclude my ACT, I have a naturally gift for taking standardized tests). I really only did minimal volunteer work, along with a summer job or two, and an internship. </p>
<p>Hope this is what you’re asking for, it took a while to type it up lol.</p>
