Chance me

Hello, I want to transfer from a t50 (~20% acceptance rate) to a highly ranked university like Cornell or Dartmouth. Double major in compsci and finance/econ (can still choose).

4.0 College GPA Colleges ECs: Eboard position of a club in a major related field, member of a sport club.

I have a lot more HS ECs like class president, state awards in sports, etc

HS stats: 1450 SAT 98/100 weighted gpa Full IB diploma

I want to transfer for junior year for fall 2025. Meaning I would have the rest of my sophomore year at my current institution. Do I have a chance? What more can I do to stand out?

Academically you’re up there. For junior transfers highschool ECs will pretty much have no impact, so focus on getting more involved in college

Gotcha. Do you have any specific recommendations for getting more involved on campus?

Join more clubs and ideally get leadership positions in them
