<p>I'm applying s a transfer student to Duke this year and I want to know if I have a chance of getting in. I was accepted into Duke last year. I currently attend an Ivy League school, but I've been seriously disappointed about my education. I am involved in a few ECs, my grades are decent, and I really need to leave this school. I also know one of the admissions officers. She tried to recruit me last year. How great are my chances???!!!! How selective are the transfer rates at Duke University?</p>
<p>You’re fine. I transferred from an ivy league school with average grades and got into every school that I applied too (mostly highly competative LACs) and my extracurriculars weren’t anything special. I even withdrew from a class and nobody cared.</p>
<p>hm, do you mind telling us which ivy you attend right now op? i think you’re chances are quite good too, but i’d need a little more info on what exactly your gpa is. Duke is much more difficult to get into as a transfer student. although you were accepted out of of high school, so you have another big edge over applicants. Just curious, why didn’t you attend Duke instead of your ivy? Unless you go to HYP, i think duke’s rep is almost as good as that of any ivy from columbia downwards.</p>
