i'm an athlete at harvard who is thinking of jumping ship (i'm just not getting what i need training wise). for me personally, stanford is really the only school that i feel might be worth the trade-off.
i'm not going to be an athlete forever, so would this slight step down (in cachet more than anything else) make a considerable difference come recruiting time?

just keep in mind that you may have to go out of your way to explain yourself... if you have a credible story, i think you will be ok. just keep in mind what each alumni base entails as well as the opportunities open to them
nobody is going to fault you for transferring from harvard to stanford - someone who can excel academically while competing in the pac-10 will get a job he or she wants regardless of the market. make the choice that is right for you and don't look back.
You'll be fine. Also, you're transferring from H to S, which is arguably a step down. Everyone knows this, so you will be fine. This is especially true (that you'll be ok) since S and H have very similar firms coming to their campuses. Enjoy the nice Cali weather!
