Anyone else applying for transfer? My daughter is a soph at a highly-ranked women’s college and is miserable w/ the politics and lack of social life.
She is very interested in Rhodes for its academics, campus, reputation.
Hope to hear from others looking to transfer
which all-girls college?
also I heard Memphis is not a great city
We live in Memphis and love the city! We’ve lived in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Honolulu, Albuquerque, Nashville and Memphis and have visited dozens and dozens of other cities. And I’d say Memphis is one of the friendliest cities I’ve ever been to!

@wshsrc How were you notified? I applied in February and I have yet to hear back… I thought decisions were supposed to be released by May 1.
I got in on April 28. No word on financial package yet. @lpd512 I hope it worked out for you!
@gaking Thanks! Congrats! I have not gotten a decisions yet. I just called and they said they were still making a decision so I feel like that is not a good sign. 
Still have not heard back
