<p>I know Holy Cross doesn't take a lot of transfers because of the high retention rate, but I'm interested in trying to transfer. </p>
<p>-I'm a freshman at Boston College with a 3.4 GPA. I was accepted to Holy Cross last year but chose to attend BC (I don't know if this helps or hurts my shot).<br>
-My high school transcript is great (As and Bs in APs)
-I held several leadership positions and am now involved in a few diverse activities at BC (one music, one community service, one academic)
-One of my parents went to Holy Cross and is actively involved in the alumni community
-I have a 32 ACT
-My greatest academic strength is writing so my transfer essay should be pretty good, and I'm of course willing to interview.
Is this enough to combat the low transfer acceptance rate?</p>
