<p>"please provide a statement (250 words minimum) that addresses your reasons for transferring and the objectives you hope to achieve."</p>
<p>I'm transfering because I want a chance of scenery, different student body, different set of course offerings, a real campus, a larger feel to the school, and a different administration, and others. I hope to grow as a person and academically. I hope that I get a strong education from the schools I'm looking at and other things.</p>
<p>Is the gist of the way I answered that enough or do I need to make it more concrete and explain myself better?</p>
<p>I've had a lot of trouble with this, it's hard to get a feel but you can't expect people to write your essay for you. you've got to figure it out.</p>
<p>I never asked anyone to write my essay for me. That is not my goal by asking this question, I am actually somewhat offended that this gave you that idea. I have finished this essay, thought it took me a substantial amount of time to figure out how to say what i wanted. I asked this question to get a poll of why others are transfering, not to use their ideas.</p>
<p>Colleges like to see that you are committed to their school, and have a legitimate reason for applying, if you're applying simply for the prestige, chances are you will be rejected (depending on school, of course). The most successful topics of admitted transfer students usually deal with something out of the box, colleges love to see creativity, and something that peaks their interests over generic transfer applications.</p>
<p>Read Andale's post on "Transfer admissions 101" (stickied at the top of this section on Transfer Students). It addresses your question--as does Nerf2111's post above. </p>
<p>Other than that very few people are going to put down their creative reasons for transfer on here--the reason being that you may not want to steal their ideas--but that doesn't mean others viewing this thread may not wish to do so. So why take that chance of having someone else use your ideas and apply to the same school--and then having them be accepted ahead of you?</p>
<p>Hello everybody. I'm currently a junior and I'm thinking about applying for the fall 2008 semester at Rutgers. I know this is stupid because I only have one year left and should finish it out. Its just that I'm concerned when I apply to buisness school, I'm not going to have a shot getting in to the schools of my choice. I read on the rutgers admissions website that after 2 years graduated from HS and 12 college credits, SATs are not required. After reading that, I felt I have a stong chance of getting in. My parents aren't crazy about what I'm doing and I'm worried I'm making the wrong move. The Transfer application deadline is Jan 15 so I had to rush through the application. I put down all my clubs and societies, I belong to during my 2 years. This is the part that's killiing me. I didn'y write a personal essay because they said its not required. Plus its been 5 years since I graduated from HS. I'm not a freshman trying to get into rutgers. If anybody can tell me if I have a chance of getting in. I was part of the Accounting Honor Society, Chess club, Accounting Honor Society. I have a 3.45 GPA and a B+ GPA in HS. I should of wrote the essay but what if it wasn't top notch, it could of worked against me. If anybody has transfered to rutgers and is in my situation, any help or advice is appreciated</p>
