Transfer chances...

Transfer Students
1

<p>I'm currently a freshman at a top 20 liberal arts college and am seriously considering transfering next year. My stats are:</p>

<p>High School
GPA:3.63/4.0 Unweighted
SATs: Math 700 Crit. Reading 710 Writing 750
EC: Newspaper editor, Yearbook editor-in-chief, varsity skiing, founder of several successful clubs, 100 hours of internship.
Good recs.</p>

<p>College
Expect a 3.7 GPA, possible higher
ECs, very strong</p>

<p>I'm thinking about UChicago, Georgetown, Brown, Vassar, NYU, and Northwestern</p>

<p>What do y'all think my chances are at any/all of these schools?</p>

<p>I'd say your chances at Brown are poor just because they have so few openings. Figures from collegeboard:
* Total number of transfer students who applied: 1,085
* Total number of transfer students who were admitted: 33
But your chances are much better at the others. Keep the GPA as high as possible.</p>

<p>Any other opinions?</p>

<p>Any more thoughts, particularly about UChicago?</p>

<p>chicago is all about the essays
