<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p>I am planning on applying to CMC, Pomona and Pitzer as a transfer student next fall. I was wondering if anyone knew how to become an appealing transfer applicant. I am aware that transferring to these schools are very competitive and I'd appreciate any advice that I can get.</p>
<p>Would getting in contact with a coach of a sports team (aka recruitment) help in any way? Is not applying for need-based financial aid appealing? What kind of things would make me stand out against all other transfer applicants?</p>
<p>Thanks so much!</p>
