Hey guys! Thought I’d start this
Objective
College: Case Western, previously small unknown LAC
GPA: ~3.69 overall, 51 credits/4.00 major-specific, 14 credits
Major: Psych and Sociology
HS: Pretty good NJ public
GPA: 3.14 I believe (My chest!)
Rank: 304/514 (My chest!)
SAT: 1930 (630 M, 640 CR, 660 W) (My chest again!!!)
Financial Aid: Y
Gender: M
Race: Caucasian
Subjective
ECs: Rowed crew during HS, volunteered at soup kitchen for a few years, research during college, part of EMS freshman year, a few other minor volunteering things.
Essays: Could break 8/10 for the transfer common app prompt if lucky, supplements probably won’t be as good.
Recommendations: Probs not amazing for (hopefully) supplemental recommender, trying to get an old professor to write one which should be better. Regardless, my sociology professor should write a good one, maybe close to 9/10 if I’m lucky. She seemed to like me.
Where else am I applying: Northwestern, Yale, Swarthmore, Amherst, Haverford, Davidson, Duke, UChicago.
I’m perfectly content with staying at Case, as you can most definitely tell. Good luck to everyone! Remember, an acceptance or denial can not define you, only you can!
There is already a Columbia transfer thread.
