My chances of Transfer?

<p>Hi tunafish,</p>

<p>I spent some time reading into Stanford transfer success stories and you seem to have a more decent chance, as far as 2% admissions rates go. Basementcat’s said it all about how your achievements are extraordinary. If it were my decision, I would admit you right away. Unfortunately, Stan only admits about 20 students so even the inhumanly perfect applicants don’t have a solid chance. </p>

<p>As for UCB or UCLA, I’m not sure about their CS program (I’m L&S) but I think generally they both evaluate candidates holistically so your ECs can make up for deficits. I can’t really give you a solid answer. You can ask on the UC Transfer sub-board for more specific advice if you have more questions about this if no one knows the answers here. </p>

<p>An applicant with an unusual extracurricular always has a good chance if he or she markets them well. Your GPA is definitely not low enough for you to be out of consideration. I would encourage you to definitely apply to all three universities. </p>

<p>Best of luck! I really hope you get in (you deserve it!). </p>

<p>P.S. This link may be a useful read for you: <a href=“http://www.foothill.edu/transfer/articulation/Stanford_Guide_2002.pdf[/url]”>http://www.foothill.edu/transfer/articulation/Stanford_Guide_2002.pdf&lt;/a&gt;. It’s a bit dated and it’s written for a CC student, but it contains statistics about ages of past transfers that are interesting.</p>
