<p>I heard your chances of getting accepted into a competitive college (MIT, california institute of technology, Harvard, etc.) are higher if you transfer to them from a college (any college; from a community college to an Ivy league college), if your grades are good, rather than applying to a competitive college in high school. Any truth to this?</p>
<p>Not really. I know that many schools (like Brown) have a waaaaaaaay lower acceptance rate fro transfers.</p>
<p>Much harder as a transfer no matter where you’re coming from. No one leaves, so there are no spots for transfers-- and the few that exist often go to athletes and VIPs.</p>
<p>Harder, yes, but not impossible.</p>
<p>Unless you are aiming for Princeton. That is actually impossible since they don’t accept transfers.</p>
