<p>I applied to transfer to Yale as a rising sophomore. All of my college grades have been good and I currently have all As except for 1 C on my midterm report. The C- is in an engineering class and is based on a test that is currently 70% of the grade and will almost certainly be dropped by the end of the course. How important is the midterm report? Is there anything I can do???</p>

<p>“As competitive as the admissions process is for freshmen, the transfer process is even more so. Yale receives more than 1,000 transfer applications each year, and we have spaces for only 20 to 30 students. While GPA is not the only factor that the admissions committee takes into consideration, it may be helpful to note that the average college GPA of admitted transfer candidates is 3.8.”</p>
<p>=> If your GPA is 3.8 or more with the ‘C’, you are probably still in the running. But, given the odds, the best you can do is wait . . . and pray. Best of luck to you!</p>
