Re-applying twice

Hi,

Is it just too many times to re-apply to a particular school twice (ie 3rd application for Fall 2012). This school has a particular program and a particular professor from which I hope to learn a lot from. Unfortunately, they denied my transfer application this year (transfer admission rate <5%). I was, however, accepted as a high school student the year before (for Fall 2010). Do you think there is a chance they might just see it’s my 3rd application and throw my file away? Also how should I go about asking people again for recommendation and stuff? This is just so awkward. Also, I want to stress that the only reason I want to go there is because of this particular program/professor. There is just no way I would get to take the classes I want to take there and study with them at any other place. I could not care less about things such as location, size, ranking, ect… (though these aspects also happen to be a very appealing part of the institution here) and I’m extremely happy at my current school, which is also excellent. I am just not completely academically fulfilled. And the point of school is academics, isn’t it?

Thank you
