<p>Hey, out of the roughly 75 accepted transfers each year, about how many are from other Ivies?</p>
<p>Does Harvard care if an applicant goes to another Ivy or do they prefer to have more diversity over a rival Ivies?</p>
<p>I have a 3.9 at Cornell and I'm thinking of applying for transfer. I don't have a lot of ECs, and certainly no community service or other significant accomplishments.</p>
<p>no community, no significant accomplishments, little ECs. How do you plan on transferring?</p>
<p>You said you don't have a lot of ECs. Do you have at least one you're passionate about?</p>
<p>"Hey, out of the roughly 75 accepted transfers each year," </p>
<p>Correction:</p>
<p>"out of the 40-ish accepted transfers this year,"</p>
<p>Quite a few transfers to Harvard, historically, come from Cornell, Penn, and Dartmouth, as well as Stanford, Wellesley, and MIT. Your GPA is in the right range, but it will be a problem that you aren't very involved on campus (unless you're devoted to some giant chemistry research project or something).</p>
<p>Columbia has fared rather well my year and not a single Cornell kid entered in the fall of last year...I'm not sure about that this year though.</p>
<p>Duke seems to fare rather well in the process too.</p>
