(3): Extern Finance-group founder, organized and planed trips to local firms with fellow students. Went to Vanguard and Edward Jones.

Might be hard to find someone to chance you because the majority of people here are undergrad freshman applicants.

@jason922 You are probably right, you have any other places in mind?

I think you look pretty good. Northwestern transfer is generally on the harder side then some other top 20 schools and is comparable to Ivy difficulty. Your GPA and especially extracurriculars look really strong in my opinion, and while the ACT should be at least a 30 in most cases, I don’t think a 27 would necessarily kill your application. If I had to pick yes or no I would say you get in.

Anyone else?
