Vanderbilt Transfer Decisions [Fall 2017]

Decision: Accepted

Gender: Male
State: International
Current College: Along the lines of UNC, UMich, maybe NYU
Credits: Will have ~60 by the end of the term; rising junior
Major: Economics (CAS)
HS GPA: 3.8+
ACT/SAT: 32+
AP: 10+ with near all 5’s
SATII: Submitted three at 750+
College GPA: 3.7+ taking fairly rigorous workload in major and elective classes
EC: Several leadership positions in campus organizations. Active in student government. Also participated in student-to-university councils.
LOR and Essays: LOR’s were probably good but impersonal (I go to a large school). I would rate my essays 7-8/10. They clearly defined my goals in transferring but didn’t really contain any standout hooks.

The first application decision for Vanderbilt transfer this year was April 18, my decision came in the 1st wave.
