<p>The schools you listed are very very competitive. I know it may not seem like it, but schools like Vassar and Pomona have transfer acceptance rates very different from their freshman acceptance rates. Plenty of students who could have gotten into Vassar freshman year are turned away as transfers. It’s tough, I think some matches are absolutely necessary if you’re intent on transferring.</p>
<p>As mentioned before BU and GWU are pretty good ideas. I’m not sure about Lehigh though.</p>
