<p>Not that I know off. :)
Unless they changed policies in the last year, you can apply twice as a transfer. </p>
<p>But mind you, it's tough coming into Harvard as a transfer. The social atmosphere tends to be a little cliquish.</p>
<p>I'm sure you'll do fine wherever you end up sifat! Good Luck!</p>
<p>I retook the SAT last October got a 700M 740CR and I'm not applying to transfer anymore because I think they are too low.</p>
<p>How do such schools look at the ACT? I took the SAT 4 times in HS and did badly every time and now that I am applying as a transfer, I signed up to take the ACT.</p>

<p>Those scores are fine. Sure, they are not a lock-in for Harvard, but nothing is, then again. I got a 690M800V on my SATs, and look where I am now (I was also admitted at Chicago and Rice). You are definitely in the range of such schools with those scores.</p>
<p>Kipling, mubarak. Where in afghanistan are you from? What kind of ECs did you do?</p>
<p>GPA doesn't mean jack. It just stands for how hard you work. GPA is no indication of intelligence what so ever. Look at his SAT scores. If SAT > GPA (significantly) then you got a 'smart slacker.' If I were a college admissions officer, I'd take a smart slacker over an average hard worker (i know adcoms don't do that but i wished they did.)</p>
<p>I would take a combination of both, which, I believe, IS what adcoms do. It's not enough to just be 'smart', you have to show that you do have some capacity to work hard.</p>
<p>^Yeah that's true. Relatively speaking, a 'smart' person with no work ethic would not really be of benefit..</p>
