Chances for Vassar Transfer

Hi everyone!

I’m applying to Vassar as a transfer student out of a BFA theatre program and was wondering about my chances of getting in! In my essay, I wrote about how I realized I wanted a broader and more rigorous liberal arts education to supplement my interest in theatre.

High school GPA: 3.7
College GPA: 3.8
ACT Composite: 31
APs: Art History, Gov, US History, English, Psych

High School Extracurriculars:

  • Drama (4 yrs)
  • Speech Team (4 yrs, many awards, Vice President)
  • National Honor Society (2 yrs)
  • Camp Counselor
  • Assistant taught a class at my local community theatre

College extracurriculars:

  • Intern at a nonprofit
  • Involved in theatre

I plan to visit and would love to do an evaluative interview, but their website says interviews are informational only.

I was also wondering about Vassar’s acceptance rate for transfers - their website says it’s pretty small, but the common data set had it at about their acceptance rate for first-years. Does anyone know about what it is?

I’m also applying to Kenyon, Skidmore, Whitman and Wesleyan - how do my chances for Vassar compare with those schools?

Thank you so much!
