I’m looking to transfer from Northwestern to BU, BC, or NYU, and I’d just like to know my chances. Here are my stats:
High School:
GPA: 93.4 unweighted, 96.9 weighted (objectively rigorous AP schedule)
Rank: 40/540
SAT: 2350
ACT: 35
SATII: Math II 800, Physics 740
ECs: Decent
Reason for transferring:
I’m interested in a degree Northwestern does not offer but BU, BC, NYU offer.
At Northwestern:
GPA: 3.45 in engineering curriculum after one quarter.
ECs: Meh but only one semester done so far
Thank you all, I sincerely appreciate any input.
Also, throw Northeastern into the mix
Did you apply to those schools as a freshman?
I thought northwestern is considered more prestigious than the two you are transferring to… So based on that, I think your chances are very high
Northwestern is indeed more prestigious than those I listed, but my GPA there is a bit subpar for transfers. Thanks for the input!
I have not applied to any of those schools. I applied ED to Northwestern
What degree is it that you want from BC, BU, NYU, etc., but cannot get at Northwestern? Business?
It would be housed in the business college. Think accounting and finance.
