<p>This is a just a thread for transfer students to ask question and to get an idea of how many other applicants there are and where they are from.</p>
<p>I'm a Female from New Mexico - applying as a Sophomore. :)</p>
<p>Anyone else?</p>
<p>Or not…lol</p>
<p>i’m a female from new york, but go to school in a different state…will be applying for my sophomore year</p>
<p>I go to school in DC, from CA. Applying as a sophomore. Any idea of what the most important factors are in admissions?</p>
<p>Yeah, i’m applying.
How long were some of your essays - i.e., the reason for transferring.
Is that intended to be long?
Also, do they prefer we mail in the application or do it online?</p>
<p>I think it would make sense that they prefer online application. Reason for transferring does not have to be long, provided it’s good.</p>
<p>I’m applying also, btw.</p>
<p>It shouldn’t affect your chances whether you submit a paper app. or online app. Ultimately, it’s the substance of your application that’s important, not the format.</p>
<p>I’m sending in a paper application. I work better when I have the documents in front of me otherwise things get mixed up…and I wouldn’t want to be rejected because I sent a “Reasons for transferring to (school other than Harvard)” essay to them. :p</p>
<p>Hi, on the essay about outlining your academic plans at harvard, do they want us to list the classes??</p>
