<p>Ok so i was wondering how difficult and feasible it would be to transfer to Yale after a year at a solid state school... something like michigan state or iowa state or penn state?
if i have a 4.0 gpa and am involved at my college would it be possible???</p>
<p>Here’s the admissions data for transfers:</p>
<p>[Common</a> Data Set (CDS) | Office of Institutional Research](<a href=“http://oir.yale.edu/common-data-set]Common”>Common Data Set | Office of Institutional Research)</p>
<p>Difficult? Yes, very. Feasible? Closer to possible.</p>
<p>thanks soo much!! hopefully ill be able to do it !</p>
<p>^Keep an eye on the transfer thread on the Y forum, results will be coming out in the next couple of weeks.</p>
<p>Since 2007 there have been 4 members from this website who have reported being successful transfers to Y, can’t tell you how many have tried.</p>
<p>I’d just like to point out that if you’re making your college plans for the Fall under the assumption you’ll be able to transfer to an Ivy league, please don’t. Please don’t even factor it in. For your own sake.</p>
<p>^After looking at the CDS numbers, I would hope no one would be that presumptuous.</p>
<p>I’d say you will be better off try it in Graduate level.</p>
<p>you should look into other ivy leagues with higher numbers, such as Cornell and Penn. You have to set yourself apart - be unique! Think positively!</p>
<p>^^^Cornell’s transfer numbers are a bit inflated due to articulation agreements… </p>
<p>I think better advice would be to simply choose a school the OP would be happy spending 4 years at and then, if transferring is still important after a year or two, choose a school because it’s a good fit, not because it’s ivy…</p>
<p>^^You are so right… The reason for transferring should be the program you want is not offered or not ideal, not the name of the school.</p>
