Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I am currently a Sophomore at Fairfield University and am looking to transfer to a more competitive school. I may be aiming a little too high but I am looking to transfer to Brown or Yale. I am from Connecticut and these are my stats:</p>

<p>HS GPA: 3.33
SAT Math: 590
SAT Crit Reading: 600
SAT Writing: 610
ACT: 28
College GPA: 4.0
Double Major: International Business and Finance
Minor: Religious Studies</p>

<p>My extra credit for High School:
-Varsity Lacrosse
-Varsity Diving
-Varsity Football
-Vice-President of Best Buddies (helped to establish chapter)
-Media Coordinator of Asian Cultures and Traditions Club (although I'm not asian)
-Internship for the Summer before Senior Year at the Yale School of Medicine doing research with Dr. Josh Johnson
-Leaders Club
-Peer Advocates
-Model United Nations Club
:Jobs
-Lifeguard and Head Lifeguard
-Waiter </p>

<p>College Extra Curricular:
-D1 Varsity Diving (not interested in diving when transferring)</p>

<p>I also established a really good reputation with my professors here at Fairfield University and would be able to get really good recommendations.</p>

<p>So what are my chances at transferring to a school like Brown or Yale and if I am aiming too high what might be some alternatives for me?</p>

<p>You need to retake the SATs for any real chance.</p>

<p>GPA at college looks good, but those test scores will hold you back. You need a 2100+ SAT, 31+ ACT to be competative. Transfer is a lot harder than RD</p>

<p>i definitely agree. the SATs have to be MUCH higher and your essays must explain very well why you think you deserve to be in a better college (presumably to maximize your potential).</p>
