<p>Hey guys,
I want to transfer to Wharton. I'm currently a freshman at Stern, and I was wondering what kind of stats are required. My first semester GPA should be around 3.6-3.8; I play on the NYU squash team for the Manhattan League and I perform community service as well. My sister went to Wharton as well.What else can I do to ensure my transfer?</p>
<p>you need one full year of calc, one semester of microecon and one semester of marcoecon. that's about all the requirements.</p>
<p>Although you are talking about busnessis programs, i want to transfer from university of chicago to yale/harvard, so it should be interesting</p>
<p>i'm planning to apply to harvard/yale as a transfer too. it will be interesting indeed. :)</p>
<p>yes it should be. hopefully you will be apply to econ programs, while i will be applying else where, also my 4.0 here should help, just a tad</p>
<p>Hey guys, I was wondering if you could offer any insight on my chances for transferring to Penn.</p>

<p>Strong writing abilities (35 on ACT english), believe I can write strong essays.</p>
<p>Any idea if I really have a shot? I'm currently planning on applying to UMich, UNC, and UVA, but was wondering what you all thought about my chances at Penn.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>You never know. Lat year I applied to Harbard, Yale, Columbia, Dartmouth and Chicago as a transfer from a top Canadian U. I got into Yale and Chicago only, at Yale now. I had a 4.0, 1539 SAT, had heavily participated in research that got international attention, and had recs from top scientists. Go figure!</p>
<p>Do I have any chance for getting in? I heard the transfer requirements are pretty high</p>
<p>penn takes full 20%+ of transfer applicants, many more than undergrad, so i'd say you have good chances.</p>
<p>Hi, Mrinal
I'm also in NYU seeking transfer to Penn!</p>
