Transfer to Kelley

<p>Anybody know how difficult it is to transfer into Kelley?</p>

<p>I understand that I need to transfer into the college first, which I am pretty confident I can achieve, but Kelley seems a bit harder.</p>

<p>On my transfer application, should I put down University Division-General as opposed to Kelley School of Business?</p>

<p>My major is Finance by the way and I'd like to get involved with the Investment Banking Workshop they provide. Is that very selective as well?</p>

<p>To qualify for the Investment Banking Workshop you have to already be accepted into the Finance major no later than the end of the sophomore year. The reason for this is that the program starts prior to the beginning of the junior year (they have separate summer courses they take before the year begins).</p>

<p>Therefore, if you are transferring in as a sophomore, you can still get into the Investment Banking Workshop program without yet being in Kelley (you'd apply during the sophomore year). But if you are applying as a junior, you'd have to already be a declared Finance major, be accepted to Kelley, and you'd need to talk to the person who runs the program before the school year even ends during the previous term (that is, you'd need to talk to David Haberle no later than the month of May prior to the Fall Semester when you'd start at the school). Even then, I don't know if you'd qualify to get into the program or not. Right now they only let about 60 students total into the program each year--and it's based not only on grades, but also on extracurriculars and one's ability to use spreadsheets and do well in public speaking courses/activities.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>Thanks for that.</p>

<p>I'm actually a freshman and I'm considering Spring admission. This way I can get my prerequisites out of the way for sophomore year. They also have Investment clubs and some other programs which cater to students that want to join the Investment Workshop. That's why I'm hoping I get in.</p>

<p>Thanks again.</p>
