<p>would i have a good chance of being accepted as a engineering transfer?
also, is it worth it to transfer from lehigh to cornell?</p>
<p>*valedictorian of a rural public school in PA (about 270 students in my class)
1420 SAT
3.85 GPA at Lehigh after one year
3.97 GPA if you exclude english classes</p>
<p>possibly…but why transfer?</p>
<p>I’m getting pretty much financial aid but from what I’ve read I could get a better package from Cornell. (My parents aren’t paying for any of my college.) Also, i’m thinking about the ivy league diploma. Or would you say the difference in prestige between Lehigh and Cornell in not significant?</p>
<p>In Engineering? it definitely is significant.</p>
<p>Yeah, that’s what I thought.
Obviously, putting together the transfer application would take some time.
Can anyone be more specific about my chances than “possibly”?</p>
<p>your SAT is a little low, but definitely not prohibitive. As long as you have some good ECs to pair, I’d say your GPA puts you into the “solid” category.</p>
