Chances to transfer to UChicago?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Currently a freshman at Rutgers Business School, I have a 3.825 gpa. I'm applying for Physics because i am currently double majoring. I know Rutgers is a good school, but I'm leaving because of personal reasons. I already apllied to UChicago, but got rejected.</p>

<p>HS GPA was 3.67, but in all AP classes.
SAT was 2040/2400</p>

<p>I had a lot of ec's and volunteerwork in HS, but I didn't get a chance to do much in the last few months.</p>

<p>I'm not sure how much this helps, but I'm starting and running my own federally registered Politically Action Committee.</p>

<p>Do I have any chance at getting into UChicago or any similar school, or should i aim lower?</p>

<p>Don’t aim lower. You have a chance at UChicago, even if it is a reach (which it is).</p>

<p>You can try Boston College, UIUC, Wisconsin as safeties/matches.</p>

<p>UChicago has a transfer admit rate of about 2%. It’s your call whether it’s a waste of time and money to apply, but if it were me, I’d stay the hell away.</p>

<p>No harm in trying. Reapplication could be seen as determination…or as a failure to come to terms with the truth…but you could play with that idea and bring it up in your application</p>

<p>Ya, theres no harm in trying, besides money, but good luck!</p>
