Transfer from Northwestern University.

Wow, that’s crazy. You seem very qualified. What school and major did you apply to? My only thoughts are that they have an insane emphasis on essays; I know this is true to some extent but I’m still not quite sure how you wouldn’t qualify. Either way, what else can you do now… That’s a huge bummer.

Rejected
Don’t have enough credits

Econ major. I think that’s because I don’t have enough credits for LSA. I’m pretty sure that LSA has a preference for Junior transfer. I will update my term to winter. Good luck guys.

I was rejected by more schools than I wish to count when I applied for transfer as a freshman. I applied to any of my interests that accepted spring transfers and went through the same reject/waitlist cycle again. For example UVA had a 33.95% acceptance rate for Fall 2021 and only a 12.8% acceptance rate for the spring 2022. Don’t get to down by the rejections, you have a strong application and although it may not seem like it now, there will come a day when the decision letters say something different. Keep your head up, keep the faith, and keep going. All the best to you.

My dream school is Umich as a child. Umich reject me twice but I will continue to apply.

Got rejected:( i only applied to Umich cuz it’s been my dream school for years and years…
and my decision letter even didn’t ask me to apply for the next term… so should I just give up :frowning:?

Don’t give up! But don’t not enjoy where u are now until then. So sorry got denied.

Don’t give up! I got rejected as a senior in high school and got accepted today. Hopefully my stats for LSA give you hope—

HS GPA- 3.7
College GPA- 3.71
SAT optional but they had it from HS- 1290
Internship in my field, 15+ extracurriculars with leadership
1 LOR from a Professor and one from my boss from a high school job
~40 Credits

I didn’t have great stats or an upward trend, but put my effort into writing my essays, extracurriculars, and explaining why I’d be a good fit for the school. Best of luck!

I also am coming from Northeastern University :slight_smile: I submitted on November 18 (complete Dec 22) and got me decision back at 10:30 AM today. Good luck everyone!

Any CoE applicants, keep me updated on your decision! I think it is starting to be “late March” and I am nervous that our decisions are coming soon.
