Yo! Be honest for me for transfer from Emory to Yale!!!

<p>Hey, I'm an Emory freshman this year and these are my stats:</p>

<p>College GPA: 4.0
High School GPA: 4.3
Valedictorian
ACT: 28-32</p>

<p>At Emory, I am involved in:
Young Democrats of Emory
Residence Housing Association
Investing Club</p>

<p>High School:
Student Council
National Honor Society
Key Club
Science Club
Young Democrats
(Orchestra)</p>

<p>Please be honest with me! What are my chances? What can I do?</p>

<p>Keep up your GPA and write essays with compelling reasons for transferring. Look at other transfer threads in this forum for plenty of discussion.</p>

<p>oh geez everyone transferring has a 4.0...
so far I've seen a 4.0 from Emory, CMU, and Columbia oy.</p>

<p>anyone know of anyone who has successfully made a yale transfer?</p>

<p>Several. They were from USNWR top 25 universities and one was from the Naval Academy. They all had close to 4.0s and had great reasons for wanting to transfer. BUT those were just the people I knew, so it's not representative. There's a transfer on CC who came from a community college.</p>

<p>Interesting, I'm applying for transfer also (from Cornell), and I have a 3.8.</p>

<p>I also, however, have a great reason for transfer and at least one amazing recommendation.</p>

<p>truazn: thats true--that a lot of people here are transferring with a 4.0. Do note, however, that a lot of them have spent only a semester in college.</p>

<p>Hey. do you think that Yale even consider any transfer applicant with sat score like a 1820.
all in the 600's</p>

<p>Depends. I sure hope so.
Great high school grades, great cegep GPA (manditory prep school for quebec), and 0.02 away from a 4.0 in college. But I ****ed up the sats (only took them once).</p>

<p>I'll see.</p>

<p>undisclosed: <em>sigh</em> i was reading through your posts and i feel like you and i have almost the same stats. will you be entering as a junior too?</p>

<p>wow, those are great stats</p>

<p>sorry to intrude in your thread, but can I ask why you want to transfer from Emory? I'm currently debating between Emory Scholars and Yale myself, and am curious what it is about Emory that you don't like.</p>

<p>yeah i have a 4.0 from georgetown and am applying i think we are all just in the same boat stats wise dude, it all comes down to how good your essay and professor recs are...</p>

<p>keep in mind yale accepts 2-4 percent of transfer applicatns down from around 10 for freshman applicants so. definately have alternate plans in mind</p>
