<p>I'm currently a first semester freshman in college and I know I want to become a nurse when I grow up. I was looking at the top nursing schools in the US and I would like to go to Yale. I never had the top notch grades in HS or the best SAT grades. I was very much an average student with average grades so how I can be Yale material for a transfer student? And community service? </p>
<p>How important is the essays in the Yale transfer app? </p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Yale School of Nursing is a graduate school. You need to complete your bachelor’s degree first. Yale does not have an undergraduate nursing program.</p>
<p>But also to your question about potentially transferring into Yale college, know that it’ll be virtually impossible. Their admit rate is about 2-3%. The typical successful transfer was the type of HS student who was accepted at several Yale-type colleges upon graduation. I’m afraid you should consider Yale Nursing after your bachelors. Good luck to you.</p>
