College Discussion - View Single Post - UChicago Transfer -- Has anyone done it?

I would have posted this question in the transfer forum, but that board seems pretty dead right now.

Anyway, I was admitted (!) as a transfer student to UChicago on Wednesday, and I couldn't be happier. Coming from a LAC in the northeast, I realized early on that the small school setting just wasn't for me. UChicago seems like an exciting (but daunting) change of pace, and I'm really psyched to go.

I want to ask current UChicago students on this forum about how the student body perceives transfers. Would you say UChicago is particularly transfer-friendly? If not, why not? I really don't have a sense of how transfer students are received by four-year students in general, so any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks
