<p>Does everyone who applies to transfer from harvard to stanford get accepted?</p>

<p>Not at all, I don’t have the numbers but I would imagine that no one school has instant admissions to a school as good as Stanford. If anything, people coming from Harvard have less of a reason to transfer, thereby weakening their application.</p>

<p>It is likely that Harvard students have a higher acceptance rate to Stanford than most other places because of the type of student (Harvard students have strong academic backgrounds and they are usually the type to put together a good app). This in no way means that any person from Harvard can throw together a crappy application and get accepted to Stanford.</p>

<p>Regarding my waitlisted application…</p>

<p>Do I have a chance? :stuck_out_tongue: I doubt that Stanford has any room for new offers of admission following their traditional May notification of waitlist acceptances. However, I feel somewhat robbed since I never got to be considered during normal application review period. :frowning: I wanted to apply early-action… :(</p>

<p>The personal letter seems like almost like a <em>wink wink</em> to me. I defintely think you have a chance.</p>

186

<p>If they were willing to waitlist me and take others off that waitlist, why did Stanford admit only half of their usual number of transfers?</p>

187

<p>Possibly the number of spaces available in the class?</p>

188

<p>I just feel that the window of opportunity to join Stanford’s freshman class is rapidly closing…sigh…</p>
