<p>Assuming you have completed 40 Semester units by the end of the fall semester at a CCC, you would be eligable to apply as a junior transfer assuming you complete the remaining 20 (60 total) by the end of the spring semester in which you apply, correct? Sorry if that is worded confusingly. Also, what would the benefits be in applying as a junior rather than a sophomore (From a CCC, once again), aside from the obvious ones such as saving a years worth of tuition? Would Stanford put less emphasis on High School grades knowing that you've completed a substantial part of college work? Would there be less emphasis on SATs? Also, how important would you imagine SAT II scores to be? Are they really worth taking simply for this? Thanks and sorry I was so wordy.</p>
<p>Fourstar, yes, I think it's safe to say that for junior transfer versus sophomore, there would be more emphasis on your college work and less on your high school work. Its also another year to improve your GPA and ECs if they are lacking.</p>
<p>Does anyone else who applied for transfer regret their decision? What if the answer is no?</p>
<p>It's just that I only applied to Stanford. I'm not unhappy where I am but now that I've applied, where am I when I don't get admitted.</p>
<p>Am I alone?</p>
<p>4.0 here; i expect to be rejected, so if they send a kind rejection, i'll consider it a victory.</p>
<p>Me too, I just frett over the kindness of those who have helped and encoureged me along the way..</p>
<p>Are you a CCC? I've often regretted my decision to start at a CSU.</p>
<p>I've been a lurker for the last three months and I hope that in the next three weeks or so, we can all receive a bit of eductaion regarding Stanfored re admissions regardless of result.</p>
<p>I wish everyone well !!!</p>
<p>Damn, Simon's Rock College of Bard sounds like the coolest school ever.</p>
<p>Heh, yeah, it is a pretty wonderful school. It just gets very small after the first few years. I'm looking forward to going somewhere new, bigger, with more resources, where I don't know everyone immediately by sight... but at the same time I know I'll miss it, horribly. When Yale didn't get my transcripts and they had to be resent... not only did Academic Affairs get it out that day... but they also knew how worried I was about it: the registrar's assistant called me the moment they got the return postcard from Yale, and the next day a secretary AND the registrar herself told me that they got it. When I had to go on medical leave, everyone-- including the Dean of Academic Affiars-- really, REALLY bent over backwards to make sure that I missed as little as possible and that it wouldn't cause me too many problems.</p>
