<p>Hello,
I am very interested in attempting to transfer into Yale from my small southern liberal arts college, where I'm a presidential scholar double majoring in political science and writing.
My high school ACT was a 28
College GPA: 4.0
HS GPA: 3.84
I'm from michigan, but i had to attend college in tennessee because they offered me a better financial aid package (my family is on social security, and my father was killed several years ago in a tractor accident.) I'm a white, female that eventually wants to go to law school.
I originally also went to school down south because i was diagnosed with a rare kidney disease that requires I have constant labwork and take arounf 20 pills a day, and because i had family nearby that could take care of me if i got sick, which I did a lot (being on immunosupressant drugs + living in michigan with snow is not good for my health, and the south is warmer.)
I went to a very small high school in the middle of nowhere and graduated in the fifth in my class.
I want to attempt to transfer to either:
Yale,
Cornell,
Wellesley, because of their generous financial aid packages, and the joint programs with teacher licensure along with the academic majors, as well as the challenge of going to a larger school. (My high school was tiny, my current college is tiny, I'm ready for a challenge elsewhere.)
I have tons of extracurriculars.
Would I be laughed out of the admissions office if I applied to transfer to any of these schools? I've visited most of them, and I'm going again this summer to check them out. I just want to know what kind of chances I have.
Please help!
Thanks,</p>
<p>My high school also only had two AP classes, one of which I took and got a 4.</p>
