<p>Presumably in crafting your transfer list you are aware of the following:</p>

<p>At first I thought maybe your list reflected a potential pre-investment banking plan. but then Cal Tech doesn’t really fit there…</p>

<p>If transfer doesn’t work out, another way is to get at Cal Tech, or Columbia I think, might be to stay at Oberlin and do the 3-2 plan.</p>

<p>Thanks…I am doing the 3-2 and the transfer is just a backup plan.</p>
