<p>How difficult is it to get into RISD as a transfer applicant?</p>
<p>My boyfriend is attending a small local liberal-arts college next year for a variety of reasons (his dad's a professor there, his whole family has attended, his tuition is ridiculously low, et cetera.) He would like to transfer to an art school later, but doesn't feel that he's ready to right now. Budget cuts in our school district have severely limited the art program, and he'd like to get a little more experience and build his skills a bit more before he applies to RISD.</p>
<p>So, how about it? I know that RISD has a fairly low acceptance rate for freshmen, but is it any easier for transfer students?</p>
