For those who have transferred into Stanford

Colleges & Universities Stanford University

<p>I would like to have a few questions:

  1. What makes you stand out from the pack, academic wise and/or extracurricular wise?
  2. Did you take interesting but demanding classes or interesting but easy?
  3. What type of university are you applying to?
  4. Advice (or anything else)</p>

<p>These questions could pretty much be asked to a freshman applicant too, just read the other threads.</p>

<p>I disagree. Its completely different to apply as a transfer student than as a typical freshman from what I’ve heard. I’m interested to find out some responses to definemyself’s question and I am curious if it is at all possible to transfer in after freshman year from a 4 year university with a very strong record or if it was just better to wait until sophomore year? Thanks!</p>
