Stanford University Transfer Thread for 2019

Greetings to all and welcome to the Stanford University 2019 transfer thread.

As someone who has been dreaming of being fortunate enough to transfer into Stanford but acutely aware of the acceptance statistics, I hope this can be a place where anyone who is interested in transferring, has applied to transfer, or has successfully transferred (and anyone in between), can talk, give advice and offer support.

Any advice, discussion, or query is very welcome. Please keep it supportive and kind, because, while only a few may succeed against overwhelming odds, we are all in this boat together!

Hello @waterperson, I have also been dreaming of transferring as a junior to Stanford for Fall 2019. I will be applying as an international transfer student. In one year of study at a not-famous state university, I have improved a lot, especially my English skills. I have raised SAT score from 1250 in Dec 2017 to 1420 in Aug 2018. I believe I am keeping up with the pace, and hopefully I’ll be confident enough to apply for transfer admission.

It’s always nice to have fellow passengers to travel by boat. And definitely, we should talk and support each other during the process.
