Official Claremont McKenna 2013 Transfer Thread

<p>I am a transfer student applying for admission to Claremont McKenna for the fall 2013 semester. I figured I would start a thread so students applying for transfer to Claremont McKenna can communicate with one another. Anybody out their applying for transfer to CMC???</p>

<p>Im applying, though its definitely a long for me. Currently a sophomore at Connecticut College.</p>

<p>I do like Conn. It can be boring at times considering the location but in general its not too bad. For me its more that I have the desire to live out West now that my family is all moved out there. My stats are alright, GPA lower than I would like. </p>

<p>GPA: 3.25
SAT: 2010
Great essays (at least so i’ve been told)
good ec’s and recs.</p>

<p>You too, hope everything works out</p>

<p>You both transferring as sophomores?</p>

<p>I applied as a junior transfer with a 4.0 GPA and a 2320 on the SAT. However, I am transferring from a community college, so I don’t know what to expect. Good luck to you all!</p>

<p>Thanks! I’m a math tutor for the school, I founded and “run” a philosophy club, and I’m the opinion editor for the school newspaper. I also “tutor” people that I know if they need help, but I was kind of hesitant about putting that on because I don’t know if it really counts…</p>

<p>Hi guys. I’m also a transfer applicant - international too. I applied as a junior transfer with a 4.0 GPA from a CC. I went to the admissions office today and they said they received 323 transfer applications with 4 from Ivy leagues and generally accept about 40 students. Good luck everyone!</p>

<p>I’m not applying to Claremont McKenna, but I am applying to a 5C college–Pitzer. Submitted my application last night. (I’m banking on the assumption their deadline’s at midnight, Cali time, since I submitted it half an hour past midnight EST.) Good luck to everyone applying!</p>

<p>Sounds legit. What do you mean you don’t know if that counts. I think you should put everything on there - the only I omitted from my application was some school organizations I am in and also omitted the general “volunteer” things I have been doing for the past 7 years because its just so random. I did put down the volunteer activities I did as part of a volunteer group.</p>

<p>Sakari, when do you hear back from Pitzer?</p>

<p>I hear back May 15th–I think that’s most colleges’ deadlines. All the colleges I’m applying to have admissions notifications mid-May.</p>

<p>Anybody had decisions yet?</p>

<p>8 days bud</p>

<p>Wait listed! Did anyone else hear back?</p>

<p>waitinglist…</p>

<p>I got in!!</p>

<p>wait list…</p>

<p>congratulations to reesespeeses~</p>

<p>Hey, I got in to CMC as a transfer, but just found out they don’t offer housing. Do you know of a place where I could connect with other transfer students to find somewhere to live together?</p>
