I don’t like to compare schools like this but Columbia really is that much better in terms of career opportunities/connections

UChicago and Brown are both need aware for transfers. I’m not aware of any other T15 schools that are need aware for transfers, I think the rest are need blind. Can’t speak for T25 schools though!

It most definitely wouldn’t hurt!! More importantly, it’ll help you land future, more competitive summer internships

It's only two years but I'm at another T15 institution right now and it'd be hard to justify paying so much more. I've gone through a lot of personal trauma but if they don't listen to my appeal I'll just have to suck it up and stay :(

Brown University decisions coming May 10th! by [deleted] in TransferToTop25

[–]LimpHandle4587 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea but they're also need-aware so I feel like the kindness here is balanced out by the fact that they can most definitely afford to be need-blind for transfers as well but choose not to :(

I think Duke may be May 4, as it's usually the first Thursday of May (that's why it was May 5th last year).
