<p>I am currently a student of McGill University, who just completed his first semester. My GPA for the first semester was a 3.67 (A, A-, A-, B+). I know GPA matters a lot more for transfer students - but just incase my SAT was a 2020 (I know that's a little below average for Wesleyan).</p>
<p>Just wanted to know if I would have a decent shot at being accepted to Wesleyan as a transfer student.</p>
<p>i'd say you have a good chance (admissions rate for 2006 was 40.5%). i just submitted my own transfer app to Wesleyan. i have a 3.8 GPA at UW-Madison and 1300 old SAT's. i think we both have a decent shot at getting in! </p>
<p>hope to see u there ~</p>
<p>uh how about me...Wesleyan is my top choice:</p>
<p>Montgomery Community College (Texas)
GPA: 3.92 with most difficult courseload (2 years completed)
ECs: President of Student Government, Math Tutor, Lead Singer in Band, community service, couple other clubs.
ACT: 34</p>
<p>I'd say you have a really good chance of getting in. With an ACT score like that I can't see why you wouldnt get in as a transfer. Do you think I have a chance?</p>
<p>SAT's (old score) 720 M, 680 V
College gpa: 3.87 from a 4-year public state school (honors program)
HS gpa: 3.8 from a competitive hs, took mostly honors and APs
EC's: did several research projects/papers with profs, competitive piano players (won many awards), won many awards for my compositions as well, chairperson on college's student council, amateur photographer (in my college's photo club), in a group that gives talks to high schoolers and middle schoolers about drugs, the transition to college/highschool, and good choices.</p>
<p>No, the admission rate was 22% (source: <a href="http://apps.collegeboard.com/search/CollegeDetail.jsp?collegeId=122&profileId=1%5B/url%5D">http://apps.collegeboard.com/search/CollegeDetail.jsp?collegeId=122&profileId=1</a> )
I don't know why people on CC keep hawking that 40% figure...</p>
<p>because they haven't checked it since.</p>
<p>Does anyone know what the transfer process at Wes is like? Do they make it easy to connect to people and the campus once you get there..?</p>
<p>It depends. You go to the same orientation that the freshmen go to, before the rest of the campus gets there, and have your own special transfer activities, so it's easy to become friends with other transfers. This leads to a lot of transfers becoming friends with a lot of other transfers, and makes it a little more difficult to integrate into the campus as a whole. That said, I have a lot of friends who are transfer students, and they all seem really happy to be here and love it. They also do a good job putting transfer students together in housing along with 4-year Wesleyan students, giving a kind of forced interaction with the mainstream campus, while still enabling you to feel comfortable.</p>
