Hello,
I am currently in the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University, and while I wholeheartedly love the curriculum at Kelley, I am considering transfer options, namely, Northwestern or Cornell.
Stats:
Highschool GPA: 3.91 (Average Public School, if important, we have not had a student go to Northwestern/Cornell in what I think has been atleast 4 years).
ACT: 32 Composite
Expected College GPA: 3.85+ (on track and capable, I’d like to set this as if for certain to see chances)
High School ECs: DECA (Business Club).
International Club.
Varsity Volleyball Team
Created own limited-apparel reselling business with own e-commerce site. (This is what I wrote my IU essay on, and most proud of, took majority of my time.
College EC’s: Planning on joining business fraternity.
Financial services Club (precursor to IBanking Workshop)
CEO Club
I am looking to transfer to Northwestern for the amazing economics major they have, which funnels students into great consulting firms (McKinsey, BCG, Bain). It is also about 5 hours closer to home, which is a large factor. Cornell is a wildcard which I’ve always loved and if I’m considering transferring, why not?
Please let me know your honest opinion! Thanks much!
