<p>(Will be posting thread on the 'Transfer Students' forum as well)</p>
<p>I'll probably be enrolling in NUS as I'm not too optimistic about getting off the several waitlists I'm on. Currently considering applying for a transfer at the end of the next academic year ... here are some questions:</p>
<p>1) How recognised is NUS by top US colleges (let's say, the Ivies and their peer colleges, excluding HYPS)? Will a stellar/good first year at NUS be regarded as an adequate demonstration of my academic ability? </p>
<p>2) What is the minimum Cumulative Average Point (NUS's equivalent of GPA) I should aim for? What were the CAPs for successful transfers in the past?</p>
<p>Feel free to provide links to any other resources/statistics/forums you are aware of.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance!</p>
