Advice: Recommendations and essays really matter in the transfer process, even more so than freshman admissions. There are more applicants than one would think who are applying from other top schools/have killer stats/strong reasons to transfer.

I’ll ultimately be attending Penn, so maybe that will free up a spot for someone on the waitlist.

@waytootilted thanks for freeing up that spot. Haha

@WayTooTilted congrats, are you in a private liberal arts college or private university right now?

Rejected! Congrats to those who got in.

Any waitlistees heard anything recently?

Dartmouth’s waitlist is a joke. An admission’s officer told me they would know something in a few days. That was 2 weeks ago! Dartmouth seems like they have no clue what they are doing and are stringing these kids along for the ride.

I was accepted off the waitlist last Thursday. Best of luck to anyone else still waiting!

Does anyone know the chances of getting in as a transfer after being waitlisted regular decision the year before?
