S4E1: Let's Talk About Transferring

In this episode of the Admittedly Podcast, host Thomas Caleel explores the workings of transferring colleges. He breaks down the process of transferring, why schools do it, why you might care, and answers some questions from listeners! Key Takeaways: You Need to Ask Yourself WHY: Whether it's in your personal statement or individual essays, schools will ask why you want to transfer, and transferring for ranking is not a good reason. Is your current school a bad fit? Have your priorities shifted? Dig deep.    How Schools Consider YOU: Schools consider more than your reason for transferring. Your academics, extracurriculars, and recommendations will all have an impact on your chances.   Take Your TIME on The Applications: There may be discrepancies in what is listed in the Common Transfer Application and what is listed on the school's page. Always make sure you are comparing the requirements and staying on top of your applications.   Local/Community College Transfers: A lot of schools do give preference to local transfers from community colleges – it can be a great option to look into!   The transfer process is complex, requiring a lot of time and hard work – Students set on their path to transfer should embrace the journey, trust in their unique story, and aim for the colleges that truly align with who you are.   Follow Thomas on Instagram and TikTok at @admittedlyco for more insights and updates!    Visit www.admittedly.co to find out more about what we at Admittedly can do to help in your transfer journey.
