<p>I am a sophomore in college considering applying to transfer into the College of Engineering at Cornell. How difficult is it to transfer into Cornell?</p>

<p>My cumulative GPA after freshman year is a 3.88, and I took classes like Calculus 3 and Honors Physics 1 & 2. I am in the Honors College at my school. I have been active on campus as an RA, a news reporter for the school newspaper, a member of Judicial Board, Pep Band, and some others. My SAT score in high school was a 1380 and I had a 3.95 GPA. I'm also an Eagle Scout and participated in NHS, cross country, jazz band, and peer tutoring in high school.</p>

<p>I would like to transfer into Cornell because of its excellent electrical engineering program...does anyone have any advice?</p>

<p>Thanks,
Joe</p>

<p>I think you have a good chance. Cornell's transfer rate is actually higher than their freshman rate, although I believe there is a reason for that (like guaranteed transfers or something to do with them being public). They do consider secondary school records, test scores, in addition to the college record, and I don't see how your's will hurt you.</p>
