Does transfering to different high schools affect our acceptance?

<p>Hi :) here is my question.
Does it matter if I transfer to 3 different high school during my high school life? Does college or university care about it? Just only some personal reasons for transfering to different schools, did not got kicked out or anything bad thing happened. Thanks:) sorry for my bad english :S</p>

<p>no, i doesnt matter. changing school wont affect your chances.
Universities will compare you and the applicants from your school and region.</p>

<p>I do not know for sure but they might ask you why.I think if the reasons are economics or if your parents are moved due to work obligations then it should not be a problem. If you were failing and you chose to go to a less rigorous school then it might play a role.</p>

<p>wegotin: Thanks for answering:) hm… Its neither economic problem nor failing class :confused: but mostly the school I transfer to are mostly the same level. It just the environment of studying. However, the school I transfer every time, it is getting cheaper and cheaper. But the school fee doesn’t matter to me. The thing is that I aim to apply my dream private university and mostly would make a great cost of school fee, but I don’t need financial aid either.
So when they ask me why did this happen during my high school life, if I told them because of my “economic problem”? That would be weird to them right.
This school transferring thing I have been thinking for many times would it be a problem…<em>sigh</em> (of coz hope it would not be)</p>

<p>bump…hope could get more answers :)</p>

<p>It can indirectly if you apply to colleges that consider class rank highly, and your new high school’s ranking system disadvantages students who transferred in (e.g. by not counting honors courses taken at the previous high school in its weighted-GPA-for-ranking system).</p>

<p>Another possibility is if the college wants a counselor’s recommendation which asks the counselor if the student took the most rigorous available courses, and the counselor underrates your course rigor based on lack of knowledge of what was available at your old high school (e.g. you might have taken regular math because there was no honors math offered at your old high school, but the counselor may assume that you intentionally chose a less rigorous math option).</p>
