Transfer admissions is easier meaning that kids are gonna be more likely to apply with lower test scores. There’s no way that the transfer middle 50 is the same as freshman
I got a 4.0 last semester, midterm report with all A’s. I don’t even remember my high school stats exactly, nothing special.
Pretty good EC’s and rec’s tho
Yeah, that’s what I’m saying. Since they don’t have to report to US news & world on transfer stats they could be open to admitting applicants with lower stats
Does BC have grade deflation?
Depends on the school, I am poli sci which I think gives pretty average gpa’s, finance school is pretty hard

I am a sophomore, so I guess I’m a junior transfer.

That may be favorable to you because you have to transfer somewhere.
Yeah hopefully lol. I have good extra-circulars and my essays were pretty good in my opinion lol
My school is like limited inflation. They give much fewer As for intro courses, and I don’t know if they wanna stop people from transferring out
Would you mind saying why you want to transfer from BC to Vandy? I see the schools as fairly similar.
Sure thing. Although it has evolved from social reasons, that is where it started. BC is very limiting socially. Never got along with the people in my dorm and because there is no Greek life and I am on the Newton Campus which is a bus ride away from the main campus/most Freshmen, I felt very isolated. I’m also in the basement of my dorm → no window which was a hard adjustment from the sunlight in CA. Besides social reasons, I have decided recently that I want to get into politics and I do not see myself living in the northeast which is as far as BC’s alumni network seems to go. Vandy is more national and I could see myself living in that area of the country as well.

Ugh ur in and you had great high school stats. God dam all you guys are taking spots from me. I feel like I’m one of the, if not, the most unqualified on this thread.
U from Colgate? U gotta be smart too. God dam.
haha. I’m a parent. One of our kids is at Colgate, yes. I’m just watching the transfer threads for a friend. Curious who will be admitted…
So your kid did not even apply?
nope.
