<p>I am a Vandy freshman who just finished my first semester at Vanderbilt. I am pre-med who plans on majoring in English. I was wondering what my chances are for transfering to Duke for my sophmore year.</p>

<p>oh woops, my bad, I took my chances thread from the duke forum.</p>
<p>I have decided to not apply to Duke as a transfer, and Brown instead.
I hear Brown has like a 27 percent acceptance rate for transfer students. Can anyone confirm this stat? </p>
<p>there is no set rate for transfers it varies year to year and it was higher a couple of times but I doubt that will happen again (just a guess). I recall in 2007 it was about 80/1000 apps, but those could be the ones who matriculated idk.</p>
<p>The only people who are silly enough to do chances around here are high school students, and they aren’t really the ones who know anything about transfer admissions. Not only that you didn’t even mention your reason for transferring (not that I want you to reply and post it because I’m not really interested), but it’s important so anyone who would have given you a chance reply would have been even more off target than usual.</p>
<p>I actually prefer the liberal grading practices at Brown when compared to Vanderbilt. From cousins that have gone to Brown, I would also like the academic atmosphere there than I do at Vandy.</p>
