Transfer student, I need some feedback

Colleges and Universities A-Z Cornell University

<p>I am a student at U Mich. The school is cool and all, but just to large and too far from home, so i decided to transfer. Coursework at Michigan does not come as too much of a challenge for me and i have a 3.8 right now. I am thinking about transfering to Cornell.
So my questions are</p>

<li><p>What are my chances of being accepted as a transfer student?</p></li>
<li><p>How will the Cornell coursework and classes stack up against Michigan?..will they be a lot harder? a little? not at all? is it harder to get A’s at these colleges b/c of different grading systems?</p></li>
</ol>

<p>And also to add some stats</p>

<p>I had a slew of honors and clubs in hs
HS GPA-3.7(that is after taking the IB diploma, Unweighted GPA)
SAT- 590 (CR), 650 (math), 630 (writing)
SAT II- 610 (bio molecular) 640 (math C1)
–>yes i know SATs are low but i never cared for them in HS so i never actually practiced for them. I could always take them again tho.</p>

<p>what are my chances?</p>

<p>soso… hard to say. imo transfer aceptance vary a lot. good shot potentially depending on what you transfer into</p>

3

<p>Arts and Science for Environmental Studies…</p>

4

<p>not sure that taking the SATs again would be much use…since it’s a test you study for…</p>

<p>i’d say you have a decent shot at CALS…engineering would be pushing it :<</p>

<p>cals i hear takes a lot of transfers… just prepare your essay way ahead of time so you can edit it really well and make it killer</p>

<p>What about the Architecture school at cornell? What kind of transfer rates do they have?</p>
