<p>Hello all,
I believe I'm going to Cooper Union for fine arts this fall--however, I want to know I have the option of transferring to a first-tier liberal arts college if I want to..e.g. Ivies, Tufts (I was waitlisted at Tufts), etc. What are the chances of my being accepted to one of those places if I'm coming from Cooper? Will they look down upon my grades from liberal arts classes because Cooper lays a stronger focus on art..even if I earn straight As? Please let me know! Thanks!</p>
<p>I heard that cooper union is super competitive and is harder to get into than the Ivies. Is that true? </p>
<p>I was thinking, if that's true, you'll probably transfer easily. The people there have good reputation.</p>
<p>Yeah, they have a 10% admission rate or something of that sort.. but don't forget, a lot of the admission criteria is also based on your talent (art in my case).</p>
