Chances for Penn, Northwestern, Chicago, and Notre Dame

<p>Hey guys, I'm a new member to the boards and I'm toying with the idea of transferring, but not sure if my stats would give me a shot at these schools. I took a look at that percentage accepted sticky, but I'm still not sure whether I'd have a realistic chance. As always, any input would be appreciated, and feel free to be harsh! :) </p>

<p>Sophomore at the University of Wisconsin
3.76 GPA
Honors Program
Forensics Club & Prelaw Society</p>

<p>High School Stats:
3.75 GPA
1890 SAT
AP's:
5 USAP
4 English Language
4 Literature
4 European History
4 World History</p>

<p>Your GPA is high, so I think you have legitimate chances at NU or Chicago. Both accept Junior transfers readily.</p>

<p>Chicago cares a lot about your essay and other non-numerical aspects of your application, and your chances at Chicago depend heavily on such things. In my opinion, transfer admission is more straight forward at NU, and I think you have a good shot at getting accepted at NU simply because of your high GPA.</p>

<p>Chicago has a core curriculum with many course requirements. Before applying, it would be a good idea to see how many classes you would need to take in order to complete their core. (especially since you'd be late in the game as an incoming Junior)</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure that ND rarely accepts transfers who are incoming Juniors so I doubt you would be accepted there. I could be wrong though.</p>
