<p>If you have completed two or more terms at an accredited college, university, technical institute, military academy or community college, you may apply for transfer admission to MIT.</p>

<p>A number of prestigious private institutions encourage transfers. Richard H. Shaw, dean of admissions at Stanford, calls community college transfer applicants mature and interesting candidates. Every year Stanford has 1,400 to 1,600 applicants for about 70 openings in the junior class. This year 26 percent of those accepted came from community colleges, he says.</p>
