Transfer Schools: Cornell Dyson, Cornell ILR, Georgetown McDonough, Boston College Carrol School, Dartmouth, Brown, RPI Lally School, SUNY Binghamton Business, and UAlbany Business.

Would kill for Cornell, by far my top choice. Just not a lot of transfer informationm out there and was hoping someone could help me out with my chances at these elite schools i could not have dreamed of in HS.

Thanks!

Are you enrolled in a CC that has an agreement with any schools? It is hard to take a significant jump in the competitive level of the college you can be admitted to after CC compared to ones you could have gotten into as a high school senior unless you have distinguished yourself in ways beyond simply getting straight A’s. on a usual course load. That would make Cornell, Georgetown, Dartmouth, and Brown huge reaches, at least given your scores and high school GPA. That is because CC is typically less rigorous then courses in more competitive schools-and so a 4.0 is not really that rare. Achievements outside classes can help.

Check with advising at your school and get some help with the transfer situation.
